I was taking cellcept during the beginning of Covid.
I was advised cellcept is an immune suppressant and to avoid crowds and unvaccinated visitors.
After the chemo I needed to allow my body to rebuild my immune system.
I’ve had 1 clear month from blisters and then the blisters erupted on my hands, arms, torso, legs , toes, and neck.
My original dermatologist moved and I have a new dermatologist who had consulted with my previous doctor that suggested chemotherapy.
I had one clear month of no blisters.
I had chocolate and Italian food and the blisters multiplied 2 fold.
After avoiding cheese and chocolate for 2 1/2 yrs.

I was treated successfully with a combination of prednisone (40 for 3 Days
20 for 3 days
10 for 3 days
5 for 3 days) and ClobetasolL 0.05% cream
Niacinamide 500 mg one tablet three times with food
I have not had any breakouts since. It is important to get a dr that is familiar with Bullous Pemphigoid.
