1.
WHAT TACNI IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Tacni is an immunosuppressant. Following your organ transplant (e.g.
liver, kidney, heart), your body‟s
immune system will try to reject the new organ.
Tacni is used to control your body‟s immune response enabling your
body to accept the transplanted organ.
Tacni is often used in combination with other medicines that also
suppress the immune system.
You may also be given Tacni for an ongoing rejection of your
transplanted liver, kidney, heart or other organ
when any previous treatment you were taking was unable to control this
immune response after your
transplantation.

4 CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1 THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
Prophylaxis of transplant rejection in liver, kidney or heart
allograft recipients.
Treatment of allograft rejection resistant to treatment with other
immunosuppressive medicinal products.
4.2 POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Tacni therapy requires careful monitoring by adequately qualified and
equipped personnel.
The medicinal product should only be prescribed, and changes in
immunosuppressive therapy initiated, by physicians
experienced in immunosuppressive therapy and the management of
transplanted patients.
Inadvertent, unintentional or unsupervised switching of immediate- or
prolonged-release formulations of tacrolimus is
unsafe. This can lead to graft rejection or increased incidence of
side effects, including under- or over-
immunosuppression, due to clinically relevant differences in systemic
exposure to tacrolimus. Patients should be
maintained on a single formulation of tacrolimus with the
corresponding daily dosing regimen; alterations in
formulation or regimen should only take place under the close
supervision of a transplant specialist (see sections 4.4
and 4.8). Following conversion to any alternative formulation,
therapeutic drug monitoring must be performed and dose
adjustments made to ensure that systemic exposure to tacrolimus is
maintained.
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
The recommended initial dosages presented below are intended to act
solely as a guideline. Tacrolimus dosing should
primarily be based on clinical assessments of rejection and
tolerability in each patient individually aided by blood level
monitoring (see
