Tacrolimus (TAC) is increasingly used for immunosuppression in organ transplantation,dermatomyositis/polymyositis,and myasthenia gravis(MG) patients.^([1]) TAC has a narrow therapeutic window with overexposure leading...
BACKGROUND Tacrolimus(FK506)is a key calcineurin inhibitor used to prevent organ transplant rejection and is effective in improving graft survival.However,it is linked to hyperglycemia and insulin resistance,contribut...
