Cyclosporin A is a potent cyclic peptide immunosuppressant produced by the fungus Beauveria nivea. Its molecular formula is C62H111N11O12 with CAS number 59865-13-3. The core industrial process involves fermentation followed by extraction and purification to achieve high pharmaceutical grade purity.
Strict therapeutic drug monitoring is required due to narrow therapeutic index and nephrotoxicity risks. Store in sealed containers at 2-8°C protected from light. Avoid concurrent use with strong CYP3A4 inhibitors to prevent toxicity.
