Cellcept Oral Suspension is an immunosuppressant. It reduces the action of the body's own defense system (the immune system) and prevents rejection of the transplanted organ.

It may take 6 to 12 weeks for Cellcept Oral Suspension to start working. Keep taking it as prescribed. It may cause birth defects so birth control is required in females with reproductive potential.
