The document explains that Thado Capsule contains 50 mg of thalidomide per capsule and is used to treat erythema nodosum leprosum (ENL) and newly diagnosed multiple myeloma patients, as well as other inflammatory or immune‑related conditions. It outlines the recommended administration schedule and advises patients to have monthly check‑ups.
Special precautions are highlighted for women of child‑bearing age, requiring at least two contraceptive methods, and for male patients, who must use condoms throughout treatment. The leaflet also warns of possible side effects such as drowsiness, orthostatic hypotension, and neuropathy, and gives guidance on what to do if they occur. This manual is written in Chinese.
