What is Tofacent 5 MG?

Tofacent 5 MG is a brand name for the generic drug tofacitinib. It is available in tablet form and is typically taken orally, twice daily. Tab Tofacitinib is a Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor, which means it blocks certain enzymes in the immune system that contribute to inflammation. By reducing inflammation, Tofacent 5 MG helps alleviate symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and ulcerative colitis.

It is a medication used to treat autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, polyarticular course juvenile idiopathic arthritis, and ulcerative colitis.

More about tofacitinib mechanism of action.

 

What is Tofacent Used For? (Tofacent 5 mg Tablet Uses)

Tofacent tablet is primarily used in the management of several autoimmune diseases:

• Rheumatoid Arthritis: For adults with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis, Tofacent 5 mg can help reduce joint pain, stiffness, and swelling, and slow the progression of joint damage. It may be used alone or in combination with other medications like methotrexate.
• Psoriatic Arthritis: In adults with active psoriatic arthritis, this medication can alleviate joint symptoms and improve skin manifestations of the condition.
• Ulcerative Colitis: Tofacent is used to treat adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis, a chronic inflammatory bowel disease that affects the large intestine.
• Ankylosing Spondylitis: This medication is also approved for the treatment of adults with active ankylosing spondylitis, a type of arthritis that primarily affects the spine.
• Polyarticular Course Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (pcJIA): Tofacent tablet can be prescribed for children aged two and older with this form of juvenile arthritis.
• Limitations: Avoid using it with biologic DMARDs or strong immunosuppressants like Azathioprine and cyclosporine.

 

How Does Tofacent 5 mg Work?

Tofacent’s mechanism of action involves the inhibition of Janus kinases (JAKs). JAKs are enzymes that play a crucial role in the signaling pathways of cytokines, which are proteins that regulate inflammation and immune responses. By blocking these pathways, Tofacitinib reduces the production of inflammatory mediators, thereby decreasing the inflammation and symptoms associated with autoimmune disorders. Unlike biologics (injectables), it’s an oral tablet, making treatment easier.

Key Benefits of  Tab Tofacent 5 mg:

✔ Reduces joint pain & swelling

✔ Improves mobility & quality of life

What If  I Forget to Take a Tofacent 5 mg Tablet?

Missing a dose can happen—but it’s important to handle it the right way:
