please consult with your nephrologist and transplant center so they can advise you of your optimal therapeutic Tacrolimus level. They can also advise you what needs to be done to reach your optimal levels.

l agree with Herkidney to check with professionals. I have to tell you l

Get labs done every month . My tac was 8 one month and then dropped to 4

The next month, it went back up the following month. When l looked at my

Pattern, my levels go down when l have diarrhea, or if l do not keep the exact

Time consistent taking medication. Stay in touch with your kidney transplant team so they can figure out the best solution for you. They may need to change the dosage of your medication.

I too agree with Herkidney, call your transplant team ASAP and they will do blood work and adjust your Tac medication accordingly. Do not worry, they know what they are doing, just don't wait to contact your Nephrologist/Transplant team. Do it now.

Not what you're looking for?
