Comment:

Cholestyramine can substantially reduce mycophenolate mofetil (MM) serum concentrations by binding in the gastrointestinal tract and interfering with its enterohepatic circulation. Colestipol theoretically would have a similar effect. Aluminum-magnesium antacids modestly reduce MM absorption. The effect of iron on MM may be less in patients taking cyclosporine plus MM.
