Advagraf 0.5mg Capsule contains tacrolimus, a powerful immunosuppressant medication that helps prevent your body from rejecting a transplanted organ. After organ transplantation (liver, kidney, heart, or other organs), your immune system may treat the new organ as foreign and try to attack it. Advagraf works by calming your immune response, allowing your body to accept and maintain the transplanted organ safely.
This medication belongs to a class of drugs called calcineurin inhibitors and is always used alongside other medicines as part of a complete transplant rejection prevention plan. It is essential to take Advagraf exactly as prescribed by your doctor and continue taking it long-term to protect your transplanted organ.
Key points
Advagraf 0.5mg works by targeting cells in your immune system called T-lymphocytes, which would normally attack a transplanted organ. The medication binds to a protein called FKBP-12 and forms a complex that blocks calcineurin phosphatase activity. This action prevents T-cells from being activated and multiplying, effectively reducing your immune system's ability to reject the transplanted organ while still allowing your body to fight infections.
Your doctor will determine the exact dose and duration of treatment based on your transplant type, overall health, and other medications. Always follow your doctor's instructions precisely, as proper dosing is critical for transplant success.

Overdose

Animal studies have shown that Advagraf may cause harm to an unborn baby. However, the benefits of preventing organ rejection may outweigh the risks in some pregnant transplant recipients.
