Abstract: Mycophenolic acid (MPA) drugs are common immunosuppressant for organ transplant recipients, which possesses high immunosuppressive effect. However, insufficient or excessive dosage of MPA is not conducive to clinical prognosis of the recipients. Hence, it is necessary to accurately control the dosage of MPA. The metabolism of MPA significantly differs among individuals. The metabolic pattern and monitoring method of these drugs are of important significance in clinic. In this article, the research progresses on the metabolism of MPA drugs in organ transplant recipients in recent five years were reviewed, the main results and direction of drug metabolism and monitoring methods were summarized, and the researches on the metabolism of MPA drugs in organ transplantation were briefly reviewed and prospected.
