Has Anyone Shifted From Cellcept To One Of The New Biologics? And, If So, What Was Your Experience.

A MGteam Member asked a question đź’­
Cocoa, FL

I had acute onset of MG with serious exacerbations (on ventilator for a week) almost 4 years ago. After multiple rounds of plasma pheresis, steroids, etc., I was able to move to 2000 mg Cellcept daily as only meds and did quite well.
