MMF-Mycophenolate Mofetil

[Fruitloop]

Hi

I am interested to hear from anyone on MMF (Cell Cept).

I have been taking MMF since Jan/99 starting on 1000mg then 1250mg, 750mg and now down to 500mg. This was in response to renal nephritis after a course of chemo.
The only thing that I have noticed as a side efffect is a change in the texture of my skin.

How long have you been on it? Have you noticed any side effects?

Cheerio for now

Hello again...
Just thought I'd ask again about Cellcept.
There is an ever increasing number of members joining the site, so maybe someone will recognize it!
The doc refered to me as one of the 'veterans', being one of the first on the program.
Would love to hear from anyone on this.
Cheerio
