Mycophenolate (CellCept) and Ketamine Therapy | Tovani Health
CellCept (Mycophenolate) (also: Myfortic) — Transplant immunosuppressant (also lupus nephritis, vasculitis)
Verdict at Tovani Health
Fully compatible with KAP.
Mycophenolate and ketamine have no clinically significant interaction. Backbone immunosuppressant after organ transplant (kidney, liver, heart, lung) and used for lupus nephritis and some forms of vasculitis. Glucuronidated rather than CYP-metabolized, so it sits outside the CYP3A4 conversation that complicates ketamine + tacrolimus stacks.
If you take CellCept regularly and are considering at-home ketamine therapy, the combination is generally safe at therapeutic doses. This page covers the brief pharmacologic context and what we do at intake.
How CellCept interacts with ketamine
Mycophenolate inhibits inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase, selectively suppressing lymphocyte proliferation. Glucuronidation with enterohepatic recirculation. No CYP overlap with ketamine.
What we do at intake
Continue as prescribed and disclose your full transplant regimen.
