Meds

Seems some people are prescribed 4000mgs of Cellcept a day even though the recommended dose is up to 3000mgs.


Trouble is with Cellcept that it takes a few weeks to start having an effect so you can't use it like prednisolone as a booster every so often when it's needed..

I wonder though if there's some kind of mix and match assortment of these kinds of meds that can kind of be tailored to different people. Maybe less Cellcept with a few mgs of something similar added in. Some of these meds do seem to work better for some people than others do so there are different responses. Wonder how they might work together. Probably not at all or something!!!

One thing is for sure though and that's that I won't be trying the rituximab .. the last couple of months have shown me a few times that it might be better to try to work things out through the other meds the best they can.
