Guest guest Posted February 23, 2004 Report Share Posted February 23, 2004 Thanks Joan I will have to look up 6mp I never heard of this one joan claffey <jclaffey66@...> wrote: Hi , I was started on Imuran but after developing an allergy to either it or a combination of that and the sun I was taken off and put on 6mp....I was on pred. & Imuran for two years & 6mp for about 3 years. So far so good. I have also done wacky things like been to healers and used oils and prayers so can't say for sure if it was all due to the meds. I strongly believe in the power of positive thinking.

Guest guest Posted February 23, 2004 Report Share Posted February 23, 2004 Hi, 6mp is also a drug used in the treatment of childhood leukemia. My daughter was on and off it for the 3 years she was on chemo. I think the mp stands for mercatopurine.
