RESUMEN
Los inmunosupresores son aquellos fármacos que tienen la capacidad
de inhibir el funcionamiento del sistema inmunológico.
En las últimas décadas se han incorporado al arsenal terapéutico
dermatológico, permitiendo disminuir el uso de corticoides así
como intensificar la terapéutica. En este artículo se hace una
revisión de las propiedades farmacológicas y las diferentes indicaciones
terapéuticas de tres de los principales inmunomoduladores
utilizados en dermatología: azatioprina, metotrexato,
micofenolato de mofetilo.
