doctor&#8217;s instructions on contraception.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your doctor will talk to you and give you written information, especially about the effects mycophenolate has on the fetus.&nbsp;Read the information carefully and follow the instructions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you do not understand all the instructions, ask your doctor to explain them again before taking mycophenolate.&nbsp;See also

Sandoz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Effect of sunlight<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mycophenolate mofetil Sandoz reduces the body&#8217;s immune system.&nbsp;A consequence of this is an increased risk of skin cancer.&nbsp;Limit the amount of sunlight and UV radiation you are exposed to by:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Wear protective clothing that also covers the head, neck, arms and legs<\/li><li>use sunscreen with a high protection factor.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Other medicines and Mycophenolate mofetil Sandoz<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or might take any other medicines.\u00a0This includes over-the-counter medicines, including\u00a0herbal preparations.\u00a0This is because Mycophenolate mofetil Sandoz can affect the way some other medicines work.\u00a0Other medicines may also affect the way Mycophenolate mofetil Sandoz works.\u00a0In particular, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking any of the following medicines before starting Mycophenolate mofetil Sandoz:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>azathioprine or other drugs that weaken the immune

Sandoz, talk to your doctor or pharmacist first.&nbsp;Your doctor will advise you on which vaccines you can get.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You must not donate blood during treatment with Mycophenolate mofetil Sandoz and for at least 6 weeks after stopping treatment.&nbsp;Men should not donate semen during treatment with Mycophenolate mofetil Sandoz and for at least 90 days after stopping treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mycophenolate mofetil Sandoz with food and drink<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Consumption of food and drink does not affect treatment with Mycophenolate mofetil Sandoz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pregnancy, contraception and breastfeeding<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Use of&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>contraceptives in women taking Mycophenolate mofetil Sandoz<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are a woman and could become pregnant, you must use an effective method of contraception with Mycophenolate mofetil Sandoz.&nbsp;This applies:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>before starting treatment with Mycophenolate mofetil Sandoz<\/li><li>throughout treatment with Mycophenolate mofetil Sandoz<\/li><li>for six weeks after stopping treatment with Mycophenolate mofetil Sandoz.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Talk to your doctor about the most suitable contraceptives for you.\u00a0It depends on your situation.\u00a0Two forms of contraception are preferred as it reduces the risk of accidental pregnancy.\u00a0Contact your doctor immediately if you think your contraceptive has not worked or if you have forgotten to\u00a0take\u00a0your\u00a0contraceptive pill<strong>.<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Women who meet any of the following criteria cannot become pregnant:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>if you have passed menopause, ie.&nbsp;is at least 50 years old and has had your last period more than a year ago (if your period has stopped due to treatment for cancer, there is still a chance that you may become pregnant)<\/li><li>if your fallopian tubes and both ovaries have been removed (bilateral salpingo&nbsp;-oophorectomy&nbsp;)<\/li><li>if your uterus has been operated on (&nbsp;hysterectomy&nbsp;)<\/li><li>if your ovaries have stopped working (premature menopause determined by a gynecologist)<\/li><li>if you have been born with any of the following rare conditions that lead to inability to conceive: XY genotype,&nbsp;Turner syndrome&nbsp;, or congenital absence of uterus<\/li><li>if you are a child or teenager who has not yet had your period.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Use of contraceptives in men taking Mycophenolate mofetil Sandoz<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Available data do not indicate an increased risk of birth defects or miscarriage if the father takes mycophenolate.&nbsp;However, the risk can not be completely ruled out.&nbsp;As a precautionary measure, it is recommended that you or your female partner use reliable contraception during treatment and for a further 90 days after stopping Mycophenolate mofetil Sandoz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are planning to have a baby, talk to your doctor about the potential risks and alternative treatments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pregnancy and breastfeeding<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or are planning to have a baby, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking this medicine.\u00a0Your doctor will talk to you about the risks of pregnancy and alternative treatments you can take to prevent rejection of your transplanted organ if:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>you are planning to get pregnant<\/li><li>you have missed or think you have missed a period, if you have unusual menstrual bleeding or if you think you are pregnant<\/li><li>you have sex without using a safe method of contraception.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you become pregnant during treatment with mycophenolate, you must inform your doctor immediately.&nbsp;However, continue to take Mycophenolate mofetil Sandoz until you see your doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pregnancy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mycophenolate causes a very high frequency of miscarriages (50%) and severe birth defects (23\u201327%) in the unborn baby.\u00a0Fetal injuries that have been reported are malformations of the ears, eyes, and face (cleft lip\/palate), fingers, heart, esophagus (the tube that connects the pharynx to the stomach), and the kidneys and the nervous system (eg spinal hernia, where the vertebrae in the spine do not are properly developed).\u00a0Your child may have one or more of these birth defects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are a woman and could become pregnant, you must perform a negative pregnancy test before starting treatment and follow your doctor&#8217;s instructions on contraception.&nbsp;Your doctor may ask you to do more than one test to make sure you are not pregnant before starting treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Breast-feeding<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do not take Mycophenolate mofetil Sandoz if you are breastfeeding.\u00a0This is because small amounts of the drug can pass into breast milk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Driving and using machines<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Mycophenolate mofetil Sandoz has a moderate effect on your ability to drive or use tools or machines.\u00a0If you feel drowsy, numb, or confused, talk to your doctor or nurse and do not drive or use any tools or machines until you feel better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You are responsible for assessing whether you are fit to drive a motor vehicle or perform work that requires sharpened attention.\u00a0One of the factors that can affect your ability in these respects is the use of drugs due to their effects and\/or\u00a0side effects.\u00a0Descriptions of these effects and\u00a0side effects\u00a0can be found in other sections.\u00a0Read all the information in this leaflet for guidance.\u00a0If you are not sure, talk to your doctor or pharmacist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mycophenolate mofetil
