How does this medicine work?

In conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, the immune system becomes overactive and sends out signals that trigger swelling in the joints and other tissues. tofacitinib works inside the cells to block some of these signalling chemicals. Lowering this activity eases pain, stiffness, and swelling and helps slow further joint damage, so daily movement becomes easier.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

Some medicines can affect the way Tofashine Xr tablet works, and this medicine can also change how other medicines behave. Tell your doctor about all the medicines, vitamins, and herbal products you take. In particular, mention if you are taking medicines that lower the activity of the immune system, other medicines for arthritis given by mouth or injection, certain medicines used for fungal infections, or medicines for long-term infections.
