Mycophenolate Mofetil

Drug Info for mycophenolate mofetil

Mycophenolate (CellCept) is used with other medications to help prevent transplant organ rejection (attack of the transplanted organ by the immune system of the person receiving the organ) in adults and children 3 months of age and older who have received kidney, heart, or liver transplants. Mycophenolate (Myfortic) is used with other medications to help prevent the body from rejecting kidney transplants in adults and children 5 years of age and older. Mycophenolate is in a class of medications called immunosuppressive agents. It works by weakening the body's immune system so it will not attack and reject the transplanted organ.

Cellcept is used to prevent the body from rejecting transplanted organs after surgery. The generic version of Cellcept is Mycophenolate Mofetil. On average Cellcept is priced at about $382 for a supply of 120, 500 mg tablets. Luckily, you can use our OptionRx savings offer to receive a Cellcept discount of up to 80% off the retail price at participating pharmacies near you.
