    use of drugs to reduce immune system activity

    Immunosuppressive Therapy, also known as Immunosuppression Therapy, involves the use of medications to reduce or suppress the activity of the body's immune system. This treatment is often used to prevent the rejection of transplanted organs, manage autoimmune diseases, and treat certain types of alopecia, where the immune system mistakenly attacks hair follicles.
