Dr. Prem Mohan Jha presented on mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) and azathioprine, two immunosuppressive medications used in kidney transplant recipients. MMF is an prodrug of mycophenolic acid that is absorbed and converted in the liver. It is generally well tolerated though can cause gastrointestinal side effects. While azathioprine is older and less used now, both work by inhibiting purine synthesis and interfering with RNA and DNA synthesis to prevent rejection. Monitoring is important due to potential adverse effects like leukopenia.
