I have problems with sinus infections, trouble breathing and wheezing while using cellcept. I was at one point so bad with sinus infections that my ears had to be drained of mucous on several occasions. I know it was from Cellcept because I was taken off of it for almost a year and all sinus and ear problems stopped. Then recently I put back on a small dose and the problems returned within two weeks.

I was just placed on Cellecept last week- 500 Mg 4 times a day-
for my autoimmune muscular myopathy- I was a body builder 6 months ago- now I can barely make it across the Target parking lot.
I am sure the myopathy is Statin induced as I was on Lipitor-)rather than Prednisone as my doctor said less side effects.
He said I should see improvement in about 6 weeks- is any body taking Cellcept for autoimmune disease?
Thank you.
PS; So far- side effects seem to be weakness- more shakiness-

Very strange, I also had an attack of vertigo with nystagmus (hoizontal) that was thought to be Meniere's disease. Kept on same dosage (3000mg a day) due to Kidney transplant. Otherwise, fatigue and weakness are only other direct side effects.

I have a side effect of a sexual nature. It is very uncomfortable when having sex and my husbands sperm burns me. My doctor said that he didn't think that it was the cause but I know when I lower the dose or get off it stops. Also my Iron level has drop.

I am being treated with Cellcept (1000 mg in the morning and 1000 mg in the evening) for pemphigus vulgaris. Although I am post-menopausal, recently hot flashes have reappeared (yuck), and I am curious if they could be attributed to the Cellcept. I am also on Dapsone, Prednisone, and Valtrex my other main pemphigus medications). I have been taking Cellcept for about 2-1/2 years at this same dose.
