Immunosuppresants dose
Hi doctor this is regarding use of immunosuppresants medicines. I am currently taking immunosuppresants for alopecia universalis. The medicines which i am taking are betnesol forte 9 mg per week( pulse therapy) cyclosporine 50 mg per day, and MMF 1.5 g per day. I believe these immunosuppresants are used in kidney and liver transplants As well. So just wanted to know whether i can take these medicines at the same dose as mentioned for the rest of my life as without taking immunosuppresant my condition relapses. So is it safe to take these medicines at the dose mentioned as i believe for kidney transplant patents have to take these medicines at much higher dose for the rest of the life.
