About

Tacsant 0.5mg Capsule is an immunosuppressant used in combination with other medications to help prevent organ rejection following a transplant (such as liver, kidney, or heart). It works by weakening the immune system to stop it from attacking the newly transplanted organ.

The dosage and frequency of Tacsant 0.5mg depend on factors such as the type of transplant, your body weight, and any other medications you are taking. Always follow your doctor’s instructions carefully. This medicine should be taken on an empty stomach—either at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after a meal. To ensure its effectiveness, take it consistently and do not skip doses, even if you feel well. Stopping the medication suddenly may increase the risk of organ rejection.

Tacsant 0.5mg Capsule may cause several side effects. It can lead to or worsen diabetes and kidney issues, which require immediate medical attention. Other common side effects include tremors, infections, high blood pressure, headaches, and trouble sleeping. Inform your doctor if any of these symptoms persist or worsen. Since the medicine lowers your immunity, it also increases your risk of infections.

Before starting Tacsant, inform your doctor if you have any liver, kidney, or heart conditions, diabetes, or high blood pressure. You should also mention any other medicines you're taking, particularly those for infections, pain, or arthritis, as drug interactions are possible. Limit your exposure to sunlight and UV rays, as immunosuppressants can raise the risk of skin cancer.

Both men and women should use reliable contraception during treatment to avoid pregnancy. Tacsant is generally not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding unless absolutely necessary. Regular medical check-ups, including blood pressure monitoring and lab tests, are required to track your response to the treatment.
