"I’ve been taking mycophenolic acid for a year and my symptoms are well controlled with no side effects whatsoever. It is pricier than Cellcept (copay is $100 per month!) but Cellcept made my heart race."

"Started originally on Cellcept and felt significantly better and Dermatomyositis rash was well controlled until I had sudden onset of GI symptoms. Doc immediately took me off then started me on Myfortic and although GI is better I don't think it works as well as Cellcept. I may be considering a change to MTX."

"I’ve been taking Mycophenolate Mofetil for 9 months. I believe it’s been helping me with my Dermatomyositis. I have not had any serious side effects, other than possibly heartburn"
