Cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan)
Cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan) is a potent immunosuppressant that can decrease the immune response by blocking the production of DNA in cells. Cyclophosphamide is used for severe complications of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) systemic sclerosis (scleroderma), some forms of vasculitis myopathies, such as polymyositis and dermatomyositis; and sometimes rheumatoid arthritis.
