Pirfenex 600mg Tablet gives a higher single strength of pirfenidone in a carton of fifteen film coated tablets from Cipla. It is prescribed in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, where lung tissue gradually turns fibrous and loses the elasticity needed for easy breathing. People living with the condition typically notice a dry cough, breathlessness on mild exertion and tiredness that builds through the day. Pirfenidone acts against the fibrotic signalling behind that tissue change while also damping inflammation in the lungs. Higher strengths help patients reach their target daily dose with fewer tablets to swallow each time. Your doctor decides when to move up to this strength, usually after the lower doses have been tolerated well. Every dose is best taken with a meal, which lessens nausea and appetite loss. Routine liver blood tests continue through treatment so any change can be picked up early. Sunlight sensitivity is pronounced on pirfenidone, so sunscreen and long sleeves are sensible precautions. Keep the pack cool, dry, shielded from light and far out of reach of children.
