The Impact of Renal Allograft Function on Exposure and Elimination of Mycophenolic Acid (MPA) and Its Metabolite MPA 7-O-glucuronide
Transplantation, 12/16/09
Naesens M et al. – This is in contrast to severe graft dysfunction, where MPA clearance is higher due to increased free fraction of MPA, as shown in previous studies. The duality in the effect of graft function on MPA pharmacokinetics is of clinical importance, adjusting mycophenolate mofetil dose according to renal function might help to avoid side effects and improve efficacy.
