Tetracycline may reduce the blood levels and effects of mycophenolate mofetil. You may need a dose adjustment if you have been taking mycophenolate mofetil and are starting treatment with tetracycline. Contact your doctor if your symptoms worsen or your condition changes during treatment with these medications. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.

Professional:

MONITOR: Theoretically, drugs that alter the gastrointestinal flora (e.g., antibiotics) may reduce the oral bioavailability of mycophenolic acid products. Some investigators believe that antimicrobials may interfere with the enterohepatic recirculation of mycophenolic acid by decreasing bacterial hydrolytic enzymes in the gastrointestinal tract that are responsible for regenerating mycophenolic acid from its glucuronide metabolite following first-pass metabolism.

MANAGEMENT: Close clinical and laboratory monitoring for evidence of diminished immunosuppressive effect of mycophenolic acid is recommended during concomitant therapy with anti-infective agents.
