Small Bowel Capsule Endoscopy Findings in Patients Receiving Cellcept®

Myfortic® recently introduced to the market has shown to be similar to MMF in how
effectively it works and how well it is tolerated. Both drugs have the same active
ingredient, but they are different in the way that they deliver them to the body. Myfortic®
is an advanced, enteric coated formulation of mycophenolate sodium (EC-MPS) that delays the
release of the active ingredient, MPA. MPA has more potent effects on the lymphocytes than
other cells. This makes for improved GI tolerability of the MPA therapy.

from whom written informed consent has been obtained.

Exclusion Criteria:
