Product Information
How It Works
Tacrolimus is an immunosuppressant used as part of post-transplant treatment. Following transplantation, the body's immune system may recognize the transplanted organ as foreign and attempt to attack it.
Tacrolimus helps reduce this immune response and lowers the risk of organ rejection. Because it has a narrow therapeutic range, treatment requires careful dose adjustment and regular monitoring of blood tacrolimus levels. Kidney function, blood pressure, blood sugar, and other laboratory parameters may also require monitoring.
