WHAT DEXIMUNE IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR WHAT DEXIMUNE IS The name of your medicine is Deximune. It contains the active substance ciclosporin. This belongs to a group of medicines known as immunosuppressive agents. These medicines are used to lower the body’s immune reactions. WHAT DEXIMUNE IS USED FOR AND HOW DEXIMUNE WORKS • IF YOU HAVE HAD AN ORGAN TRANSPLANT, BONE MARROW AND STEM CELL TRANSPLANTATION, the function of Deximune is to control your body’s immune system. Deximune prevents rejection of transplanted organs by blocking the development of certain cells which would normally attack the transplanted tissue. • IF YOU HAVE AN AUTOIMMUNE DISEASE, in which your body’s immune response attacks your body’s own cells, Deximune stops this immune reaction. Such diseases include eye problems which threaten your vision (endogenous uveitis, including Behçet's uveitis), severe cases of certain skin diseases (atopic dermatitis, or eczema and psoriasis), severe rheumatoid arthritis and a kidney disease called nephrotic syndrome. 2.
