How Nindanib 100MG Tab Works

Nintedanib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor that blocks multiple receptors involved in fibrosis and abnormal vessel growth, including VEGFR, FGFR and PDGFR. By inhibiting these pathways it slows fibroblast activity and tissue scarring in the lungs, helping to reduce decline in lung function.
