leflunomide
📋Overview
Leflunomide is a medication that modulates the immune system by inhibiting certain cellular processes involved in inflammation. It is most commonly associated with autoimmune conditions, particularly rheumatoid arthritis. By targeting specific pathways in immune cells, leflunomide helps to reduce the abnormal immune activity that contributes to joint damage and inflammation. It is sometimes considered when other therapies for autoimmune diseases are not suitable or effective.
