Mom with Autoimmune Hepatitis (AIH)

2017-07-11 23:50:42
She was diagnosed with AIH from food 3-4 yrs ago. On mycophenolate smallest dose for 2 years with normal liver labs. Can she ever stop taking the medication? For 1 year+ she's been taking the medication 3 times a week instead of twice a day and her labs have been normal. She knows her body and is convinced she does NOT need the medication.
