Important Information
Mycophenolate Mofetil Tablets IP should be used strictly under the supervision of a qualified transplant specialist. It can significantly suppress the immune system and increase the risk of serious infections and certain cancers. Regular blood tests may be required to monitor blood cell counts, liver function, and other parameters. Mycophenolate can cause serious birth defects and pregnancy loss; appropriate pregnancy-prevention measures and medical guidance are essential for patients who can become pregnant. Do not stop treatment or change the dose without medical advice.
