    Abstract:
    Cyclosporin is a useful drug in several autoimmune diseases. It has been recently evaluated, with varying results, in several dermatoses such as pemphigus vulgaris. Three cases of this condition treated with cyclosporin are reported. The drug permitted to reduce and then to suppress prolonged corticosteroid therapy, and remission was maintained after exacerbation even in monotherapy. Hypertrichosis and gum hypertrophy were the common adverse effects.
