Tacrolimus 0.25

Introduction: Tacrolimus 0.25 mg Tablet

TACRENOLIME 0.25 is a prescription immunosuppressive medication that contains Tacrolimus 0.25 mg, a powerful agent used primarily to prevent organ rejection in patients who have undergone kidney, liver, or heart transplantation. Tacrolimus helps suppress the body’s immune response, enabling the transplanted organ to function normally and reducing the risk of rejection.

Manufactured by Steris Healthcare, TACRENOLIME 0.25 ensures accurate, stable dosing and high bioavailability, trusted by transplant specialists across India.

How TACRENOLIME 0.25 Works

• It reduces the production of interleukin-2 (IL-2) and other cytokines

• It suppresses the immune response that leads to organ rejection

• It helps the body accept and retain the transplanted organ

• TACRENOLIME 0.25 is typically used in combination with corticosteroids or other immunosuppressants

• Administration: Take orally on an empty stomach (1 hour before or 2 hours after meals) for better absorption

• Monitoring: Regular blood tests are necessary to monitor drug levels and kidney function

Always follow your doctor’s instructions precisely. Never self-adjust the dose.
