What is the drug NORSPRILAN®

NORSPRILAN® contains the active substance pirfenidone and is used for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). IPF is a condition in which the lung tissue becomes swollen and scarred over time, making it difficult to breathe deeply. This prevents your lungs from working properly. Pirfenidone reduces scarring, which allows you to breathe better.

The mechanism of action of pirfenidone is not fully established, but it is known that it exhibits antifibrosing and anti-inflammatory properties (reduces inflammation and scarring of the lung tissue). Pirfenidone belongs to the pharmacotherapeutic group called "immunosuppressants".
