Tacrolimus vs cyclosporin
My doctor has just suggested that instead of using tacrolimus this time I could switch to
cyclosporin
instead.

Accuracy of Tacrolimus trough and tacro vs cylco
I am also considering switching to
cyclosporin
because of hair loss. How do the two compare? Side effects, testing, and other issues? I know both are poisons, but needed to protect my kidneys. I also know that side effects vary, I'm just trying to get an idea of what I may be trading for. Thanks

Cyclosporine
I have primary sjogrens syndrome which is affecting my eyes terribly. I am now having to have my tear ducts permanently closed and I have been prescribed cyclosporine eye drops with steroid drops. The dr said the drops hurt for a few minutes with each use but the steroids will taper the discomfort.

My Recovery so far post Stem cell Transplant
The day before my transplant I had my first doses of
cyclosporin
to prevent graft versus host disease (GVHD) and almost immediately I started to feel nauseous.
Cyclosporin
is dispensed as a very large gel capsule and the smell is revolting.

SCT update
I just wanted to give you an update following my SCT. I am now on day +202, it is a slow recovery, which I knew it would be, but I am definitely having more good days when I don’t feel so tired & manage to go for a walk most days for about a mile. My hospital visits are now every 2 weeks, my ciclosporin

Facial Hair growth due to Cyclosporine
My doctors told me it could due to steroid or
cyclosporin
but more likely due to cyclosporine. I have taken Steroids before and I know hair growth caused by it stops as it's s dose is tapered.

Type Two Diabetes - “Some artificial sweeteners can raise your blood sugar”
Tacrolimus and
Cyclosporin
are calcineurin inhibitors. So there might be a connection between anti-rejection medication and the function of CRCT2. This is all still rather new, and medical research is still very much on-going.
