Mycophenolate mofetil may serve as a steroid-sparing agent for sarcoidosis.

D J Kouba1, D Mimouni, A Rencic, H C Nousari.   

Abstract

Sarcoidosis is an inflammatory disease with potentially severe mucocutaneous manifestations. Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) is an immunosuppressive drug extensively used in organ transplantation. Its use has been rapidly expanded into autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. We report the first successful and safe use of MMF in five patients with sarcoidosis.
