Mycophenalate

Hi guys

I've recently started mycophenelate - anyone know about the side effects? I don't have much luck with meds, and still can't believe ritix made my lungs collapse!!
I feel sick and terrible headaches. Is this a common side effect?

Thanks! Gwen xx

The main side effect is diarrhoea. I have taken it for many years and have never found a way of curing that one so I just live with it.

Gwen, those side effects might clear up. I had some initial side effects with Cellcept that stopped after a few weeks.

The diarrhea continued, though. It was much better with drinking 4 oz of aloe vera gel every day (2oz morning and night). I'm allergic to aloe now, so I don't know what I'd do if I had to go back on it again!
