Tacrolimus is a potent macrolide immunosuppressant produced via fermentation. It functions by inhibiting calcineurin to prevent T-cell activation. Its molecular formula is C44H75NO13, with CAS number 104987-11-3.
Strict therapeutic drug monitoring is required due to a narrow therapeutic index. Store in a cool, dry place protected from light. Avoid use in patients with hypersensitivity to macrolides or concomitant nephrotoxic agents.
