How CYCLOPYURIN 50 CAPSULE Works
CYCLOPYURIN
50 CAPSULE is an immunosuppressive agent. It works by blocking the

your body’s immune functions and enables your body to accept the newly
transplanted organ. It also stops the abnormal immune response in the
body and manages your body from attacking its own cells.
