Product description
Common use
CellCept is used to prevent organ rejection in patients who are at least three months of age who have received a liver transplant, a heart transplant, or a kidney transplant. CellCept weakens your body's immune system, to help keep it from "rejecting" a transplanted organ. Organ rejection happens when the immune system treats the new organ as an invader and attacks it.
Dosage and direction
Take CellCept exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Take oral CellCept on an empty stomach, at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after a meal. Swallow the capsule or tablet whole and do not crush, chew, break, or open it. Tell your doctor if you have trouble swallowing a tablet or capsule.
Precautions
Cellcept can cause a miscarriage or birth defects when used during pregnancy. Both men and women should use effective birth control to prevent pregnancy during and shortly after treatment with CellCept. You should not breastfeed while using CellCept.
Using CellCept may increase your risk of cancer, serious infections, or kidney transplant failure. Talk with your doctor about the risks and benefits of CellCept.
