Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi there,
Thanks for posting here.
Pemhigus vulgaris is an autoimmune disease for which now many medicines are available. Generally for a severe disease we give pulse therapy to minimize the side effects. Remissions can be achieved through pulse therapy after which she needs maintenance therapy. The disease can be very well controlled.
Take care.
Hope this helps you.
