Dr. Weiss recommends using both pred and Imuran together, but in smaller doses. I have 2 that are getting both, and have not had any problems so far. But you do have to be careful, as both drugs act to suppress the immune system.
Also, if you can't find a copy of the article, send me a snail mail address of fax number by private email and I will send you a copy.
Sorry, I can't answer the question on hepititis.
