We describe experience with the use of mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) in neurological diseases. Although only small series of patients or case reports were described, MMF is promising in immune-mediated neuromuscular disorders. MMF has been used for the treatment of polymyositis, chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy, and multifocal motor neuropathy. These studies showed that MMF is well tolerated and may be useful in some patients. MMF can be effective alone but mainly as an adjuvant therapy by reducing steroid requirements or the frequency of infusions of IVIg. MMF has also been tested alone as a single drug treatment or in combination with immunomodulatory drugs in multiple sclerosis in open surveillance trials or in phase II studies. None of these studies have been designed to demonstrate a clinical efficacy but preliminary results are very promising.
