Other names for the drug Pirfenidone: Pirfenidona (Mexico), Kitoscell. All drug names will be mentioned in these instructions. Pirfenidone is an immunosuppressant used to treat mild to moderate primary pulmonary fibrosis in adults.
Studies have shown that Pirfenidone is also effective in treating fibrotic conditions in other organs, including the kidneys and liver.
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a condition in which lung tissue swells and forms scars over time, making it difficult to breathe deeply. Thus, the lungs have difficulty functioning properly.
Pirfenidone helps shrink the scar tissue and swelling in your lungs, thereby allowing you to breathe better.
Pirfenidone: mechanism of action
It is known from in vitro and animal studies that it has anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antifibrotic properties.
Pirfenidone reduces the proliferation of fibroblasts and other substances involved in the formation of fibrous tissue, thereby slowing the progression of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. This compound has been shown to inhibit the action of TGF-β1, a key cytokine involved in fibrogenesis.
What is Pirfenidone used for? Pirfenidona: para que sirve?
For the treatment of adults with mild to moderate idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). The disease causes the lungs to become stiff, and it takes more force for gas exchange to occur. This is further hindered by scarring of the tissue. As a result, there is less oxygen in the blood (hypoxemia).
Persistent fatigue, low physical endurance, and cough are characteristics of pulmonary fibrosis. Respiratory rate first increases during exertion and then at rest (dyspnea), and physical performance gradually decreases.
For the treatment of liver fibrosis. A disease in which changes occur in the liver when it undergoes significant, chronic, or repetitive damage. These changes manifest as fibrous scar tissue, which replaces the damaged functional cells of the liver.
The drug modulates and reduces the formation of fibrous tissue. It prevents, controls, and causes regression of fibrosis.
