Cellcept and increased creatinine

@webiondev, It sounds like you and your doctor are working together and getting improved lab results. If you read the list of side effects with cellcept (and other meds, too) you will find elevated creatinine on the list. That is the reason that our transplant team requires routine labs for us - so medications and diets can be modified to best meet the needs of our own individual bodies. I currently am on a routine plan for transplant related labs, however, I occasionally need an additional lab for one reason or another.
How often are your labs drawn? What plans, if any, had your doctor made to follow up on your creatinine/cellcept relationship?

Hi @rosemarya My problem is more than cellcept. I have a complicated biliary situation due to transplant surgery itself. ERCP helped a bit but I need long term monitor. It is not a disease but a structural situtation. My doc wants to increase cellcept to 1500 mg total and try stop prednisolone. I do my labds twice every month.
