BACKGROUND: Mycophenolate @entity1372 (Myfortic) is an enteric-coated formulation of the immunosuppressant therapy @entity3442 . We report a case of @entity9645 in a @entity1 treated with Myfortic presenting recurrence after another dose of drug. @entity1 AND METHODS: We report the case of a 26-year-old female @entity1 with @entity1252 , initially treated with @entity288 and @entity618 , but which was stopped because of @entity6079 and leucopoenia. She consulted for mouth @entity1066 occurring two weeks after the introduction of Myfortic. There were no signs of opportunist infection or lupus activity. Mucosal @entity1066 disappeared when Myfortic was stopped. Several weeks later, the @entity1 presented recurrence of mouth @entity1066 after another treatment of Myfortic. DISCUSSION: Myfortic is a new enteric-coated formulation of @entity3442 developed to reduce gastrointestinal upset associated with Cellcept. In certain cases, @entity137 can present as a number of oral @entity1066 . Direct @entity137 is involved in these cases. This side effect has never been described with Myfortic. In our case, the distinctive characteristic is that the @entity1 was never treated with Cellcept without mucosal @entity137 despite equivalent systemic @entity3442 exposure.
