myfortic delayed-release tablets and mycophenolate mofetil tablets and capsules should not be used interchangeably without physician supervision because the rate of absorption following the administration of these 2 products is not equivalent.
 |
720 mg of myfortic delivers the same amount (equimolar) MPA as 1000 mg of MMF |
