Uses of Kynteles Injection

Benefits of Kynteles Injection

Ulcerative colitis
Ulcerative colitis is a disease of the large intestine (colon) and rectum in which the lining of the bowel becomes red and swollen. This can lead to bleeding, frequent diarrhea and abdominal pain. It relieves these symptoms and also helps you to stay well by preventing them from coming back. You should drink plenty of fluids while taking on treatment with this medicine to make sure you stay hydrated.

Crohn’s disease
Crohn’s disease is a chronic (long-term) inflammatory disease of the intestines. The most common symptoms are diarrhea and pain in your abdomen. Kynteles Injection helps reduce the inflammation, relieve the symptoms, and prevent them from coming back.

How to use Kynteles Injection

How Kynteles Injection works

White blood cells (WBCs) are made by the immune system to fight infection. In Ulcerative Colitis and Crohn’s Disease, overproduction of WBCs leads to inflammation. Kynteles Injection works by stopping the WBCs from entering the lining of the gut.
