TCITIB TAB

Tcitib Tablet belongs to a group of medicines called Janus kinase inhibitors used to treat rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and ulcerative colitis. Rheumatoid arthritis is an auto-immune disease (the body’s immune system attacks its tissue) which leads to joint pain and damage. Psoriatic arthritis is an inflammatory condition of the joints, often associated with psoriasis. Ulcerative colitis is an inflammatory disease of the large intestine.

Tcitib Tablet contains ‘Tofacitinib’ which works by blocking the Janus kinase enzyme, thereby lowering inflammation and symptoms associated with rheumatoid and psoriatic arthritis.

In some cases, you may experience common side-effects such as diarrhoea, headache, upper respiratory tract infection, cold, nausea, and vomiting. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.

Inform your doctor if you have an active infection, if you have a condition that increases the chance of having infections, if you are taking immunosuppressants, medicines that affect the immune system or corticosteroids. Avoid taking Tcitib Tablet if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Tcitib Tablet is not recommended for children below 18 years as safety and effectiveness have not been established. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and medicines to rule out any side effects.
