WHAT MODIGRAF IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Modigraf contains the active substance tacrolimus. It is an
immunosuppressant. Following your organ
transplant (e.g., liver, kidney, heart), your body’s immune system
will try to reject the new organ.
Modigraf is used to control your body’s immune response enabling
your body to accept the
transplanted organ.
You may also be given Modigraf for an ongoing rejection of your
transplanted liver, kidney, heart or
other organ or if any previous treatment you were taking was unable to
control this immune response
after your transplantation.
Modigraf is used in adults and children.
2.
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE YOU TAKE MODIGRAF
DO NOT TAKE MODIGRAF
-
If you are allergic to tacrolimus or any of the other ingredients of
this medicine (listed in
section 6).
-
If you are allergic to sirolimus (another substance used to prevent
rejection of your transplanted
organ) or to any macrolide antibiotic (e.g., erythromycin,
clarithromycin, josamycin).

POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
This medicinal product should only be prescribed, and changes in
immunosuppressive therapy
initiated, by physicians experienced in immunosuppressive therapy and
the management of transplant
patients. Modigraf is a granular formulation of tacrolimus, for
twice-a-day administration. Modigraf
therapy requires careful monitoring by adequately qualified and
equipped personnel.
Posology
The recommended initial doses presented below are intended to act
solely as a guideline. Modigraf is
routinely administered in conjunction with other immunosuppressive
agents in the initial
post-operative period. The dose may vary depending upon the
immunosuppressive regimen chosen.
Modigraf dosing should primarily be based on clinical assessments of
rejection and tolerability in each
patient individually aided by blood level monitoring (see below under
“Therapeutic drug monitoring”).
If clinical signs of rejection are apparent, alteration of the
immunosuppressive regimen should be
considered.
