Pemphigus Vulgaris

Pemphigus vulgaris is a rare autoimmune disease in which the immune system attacks proteins that hold skin cells together. This causes painful blisters and erosions in the mouth and often on the skin. Treatment usually involves corticosteroids and other immune-suppressing medicines, including rituximab, to control the disease.
