Mycophenolate sodium

Description:
Mycophenolate sodium is a chemical compound primarily used as an immunosuppressant in the prevention of organ transplant rejection and the treatment of autoimmune diseases. It is the sodium salt form of mycophenolic acid, which inhibits the enzyme inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH), crucial for the de novo synthesis pathway of purine nucleotides. This inhibition selectively affects lymphocytes, thereby suppressing their proliferation and function. Mycophenolate sodium is typically administered orally and is known for its relatively favorable side effect profile compared to other immunosuppressants. It is characterized by its solubility in water and its stability under normal storage conditions. The compound is often formulated in combination with other immunosuppressive agents to enhance therapeutic efficacy. Common side effects may include gastrointestinal disturbances, increased risk of infections, and hematological abnormalities. Due to its mechanism of action, mycophenolate sodium is particularly effective in conditions requiring modulation of the immune response, making it a valuable tool in clinical settings.
