Introduction of Thaloda 50 mg Capsule

Thaloda 50 mg Capsule is used alone or in combination with other medicines for the treatment of multiple myeloma.

It is not recommended for use in children less than 12 years of age.

Thaloda 50 mg Capsule contains 'thalidomide'. Thalidomide is a medicine that helps the body's immune system attack cancer directly.

Uses of Thaloda 50 mg Capsule

  • Multiple Myeloma
  • Erythema nodosum leprosum (ENL)


Benefits of Thaloda 50 mg Capsule

Multiple myeloma: Multiple myeloma is a cancer that affects plasma cells, a type of white blood cell found in the bone marrow. Plasma cells are responsible for making antibodies that help the body fight infections. In multiple myeloma, abnormal plasma cells accumulate in the bone marrow, crowding out normal cells and leading to the production of abnormal antibodies. Thaloda 50 mg Capsule has immunomodulatory and anti-angiogenic properties. It is thought to exert its anti-myeloma effects by modulating the immune system and inhibiting the growth of blood vessels that support the tumour.

Erythema nodosum leprosum (ENL): Erythema nodosum leprosum (ENL) is a type of reaction associated with leprosy, a chronic infectious disease caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium leprae. Erythema nodosum leprosum is characterised by the sudden onset of painful, erythematous (reddish) and nodular skin lesions. Thaloda 50 mg has been shown to be very effective in the treatment of ENL. It helps to relieve symptoms, reduce inflammation and improve the overall quality of life of people affected by this condition.
