Access to Advagraf post Brexit
Hi all, I don't want to get into a political debate re Brexit! I wanted to mention that when in clinic recently my liver pharmicst mentioned to me that they have contacted manafacturers and there will be approximately 6 months of this medication in stock. During and this period negotiations with manafacturers

6 weeks post transplant and all good
Meds - down to 5mg Prednisolone, 900mg Valgaciclovir until end of course, an AdCal and he seems stable on 6mg
Advagraf
. Nothing compared to the pretransplant pile of pills he had to take and soon it will be just the Tacs and vitamin.

Advagraf dosage
I reduce the dose of
advagraf
for 9 months after the transplant, but the level of tacrolimus does not decrease. I started with 9mg, but now I use only 5mg. Tacrolimus levels are around 11-12. My doctor recommends that I use only 3mg - is it not too small?

Mycophenolate Mofetil–Induced Neutropenic Sepsis
I blamed it on my anti rejection meds
Advagraf
and MMF, but he wanted it check out. Following blood tests I was quickly diagnosed with Neuropenic Sepsis, where the White Blood Cells are extremely low, and my immune system at serious risk.

7 Months Post Transplant and started to falling to bits....
My new liver is doing great, and although they are keeping me on high
advagraf
levels (back to level I was on post transplant), everything seems to be going well in that direction.

Concerned or over protective??
However he is not feeling so good - his
Advagraf
has just been reduced from 8mg to 7mg so not sure if that has had any effect. He feels as though he has a cold, aching all over, diarrhea, itching and covered in a rash. His ankles are also swelling again.

Roller-coaster 🎢
And I am definitely putting down to the increase of my
advagraf
as it begins a few hours after I take them, keeps me up all night and then calms down just before my next lot are due.

Itching
Had to increase my
advagraf
from 0.5mg to 1mg about 2 weeks ago and the last week I have had an insane itch all over at first I thought it was fabric softener as I switched but I rewashed everything in my usual one and I still have it.

Little advice :-)

advagraf

Liver Transplant - 2 Years On
Liver-wise I haven't had many problems since the transplant and I changed meds last year from Prograf to
Advagraf
. Started off at 4 mg of Prograf twice a day and now on Img
Advagraf
once a day (since Nov). The biggest problem I had was with Prograf side effect (ankle swelling).

Liver transplantees please!
Their medicine is tacrolimus, which is also known as either ‘Prograf ’or ‘
Advagraf
’ - Prograf is taken twice a day, and
Advagraf
is taken only once a day. They will be conducting the media outreach around the new data.

Has anyone had problems with the tendons in their hands causing stiffness and trigger fingers especially at night time?
I'm on a range of medicines, including
Advagraf
and Myfenax.
