I was weaned down because I have a very low WBC after transplant, though to be a side of vangangcycovir. i absolutely needed that drug because I was CMV- and the donor CMV+.
The cellcept was adjusted from 1000 bid->500 bid->500 qd-> 250 qd; a 7/8 or 87.5% reduction in daily dose . Tacro remains 1mg bid.

My doctor was weening me down from prednisone with plans to start a new med soon - he mentioned celcept as a possibility or cyclosporine, but then he called last week and said stop weening down. He doesn't want me to change meds during the pandemic.
