We report on the search for $B^0_s\to\mu^+\mu^-$, $B^0_d\to\mu^+\mu^-$ decays and $b\to s \mu^+\mu^-$ transitions in exclusive decays of B mesons using the CDF II detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. Using 2 fb$^{ -1}$ of Run II data we find upper limits on the branching fractions $\mathcal{ B}(B^0_s\to\mu^+\mu^-)<5.8\times 10^{ -8}$ and $\mathcal{ B}(B^0_d\to\mu^+\mu^-)<1.8\times 10^{ -8}$ at 95% confidence level. The results for the branching fractions of the $b\to s \mu^+\mu^-$ transitions using 924 pb$^{ -1}$ of Run II data are $\mathcal{ B}(B^+\to\mu^+\mu^-K^+)=(0.60\pm0.15\pm0.04)\times 10^{ -6}$, $\mathcal{ B}(B^0_d\to\mu^+\mu^-K^{ *0})=(0.82\pm0.31\pm0.10)\times 10^{ -6}$ and $\mathcal{ B}(B^0_s\to \mu^+\mu^-\phi)/\mathcal{ B}(B^0_s\to J/\psi\phi) < 2.61\times 10^{ -3}$ at 95% confidence level.
