MEXATE 7.5MG TABLET is also used to manage its

young people (Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis, JIA).

MEXATE 7.5MG
TABLET is also used to manage psoriasis and relapsed (reoccurred) and

Psoriasis

HOW MEXATE 7.5MG TABLET WORKS

MEXATE
7.5MG TABLET contains methotrexate that works by interfering with the
growth of those cells in the body that reproduce quickly. As a result,
the growth of those cells gets retarded, thus serving as an anti-tumour
agent. Also, it decreases the undesired reactions of the body’s own
immune-defense mechanism, thereby working as an effective
immunosuppressant. Additionally, it also exhibits anti-inflammatory
effects, thereby reducing pain, swelling, and redness. As a result, it
manages the symptoms associated with diseases such as rheumatoid
arthritis and psoriasis.
