🧬 What is Imutrex (Methotrexate)?
Imutrex is Cipla’s trusted brand of Methotrexate, a well-known immunosuppressive and antineoplastic drug. It is prescribed globally for the management of rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, juvenile arthritis, and various forms of leukemia and cancer. The drug works by slowing the growth of immune cells and certain abnormal cells that trigger inflammation or cancer.

Methotrexate is a Disease-Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drug (DMARD), often considered a gold standard in autoimmune disease therapy. Imutrex offers a broad range of oral dosages, such as 2.5 mg, 7.5 mg, and 10 mg, and injectable formats. This flexibility allows doctors to tailor therapy based on patient condition and tolerance.

Manufactured by Cipla Limited, a global pharmaceutical leader from India with decades of credibility, Imutrex is widely used both domestically and through international medical exporters. It is often used as a low-cost generic alternative to branded options like Trexall (USA) and Metoject (Europe).

Whether you are managing an autoimmune disorder or undergoing cancer treatment, Imutrex ensures accessibility, affordability, and efficacy, making it a go-to option in many countries.
