Abstract

Objective: To investigate the better regimen of combined cyclophosphamide pulse therapy with corticosteroids in the treatment of Pemphigus.

Methods: Intravenous cyclophosphamide was given weekly in a dosage of 600 mg to those Pemphigus patients whose conditions couldn't be improved by corticosteroids (oral prednisone 1.2-1.5 mg/kg/d) alone.

Results: Ten patients with Pemphigus received weekly cyclophosphamide therapy in addition to corticosteroid. Patients conditions improved quickly, without side effects.

Conclusions: Cyclophosphamide weekly pulse therapy combined with corticosteroids is a good regimen in the treatment of Pemphigus.
