Experimental: 60 patients will be used to build and validate the system
The first 30 patients will be used to build and validate the pharmacokinetic modeling of MPA in pemphigus.The 30 patients included later will provide additional data.

Drug: Cellcept® in autoimmune bullous dermatoses
The administration will follow the recommendations for the use of Cellcept® in autoimmune bullous dermatoses |
- Evaluation of the Bayesian estimator performance [ Time Frame: 8 hours ]The evaluation of the Bayesian estimator performance will be based on its capacity to predict MPA AUC (Area Under the Curve), expressed as the bias (%) and the precision (root mean square error; RMSE) between the predicted AUC calculated using a limited number of samples performed in the first 4 hours post dosing and the observed AUC estimated using the reference method (trapezoidal rule method). A Bland Altman curve will be constructed.
