Coping and support

By Mayo Clinic staff

Some cases of pemphigus can be debilitating, especially before treatment starts to work. To help you cope with the disease and the effects of the drugs used for treatment, you may find it helpful to talk to others with the condition. You can find in-person or virtual support groups. Ask your dermatologist or contact the International Pemphigus & Phemigoid Foundation.
