About Tacronex-PG Solution

Tacronex-PG Solution belongs to a class of drugs called immunosuppressants used to prevent rejection of a transplanted organ such as a liver, kidney, or heart. Organ rejection occurs when a patient’s immune system recognizes the donor organ as foreign and tries to eliminate it.

Tacronex-PG Solution contains Tacrolimus, which works by suppressing the activity of T and B lymphocytes (cells in the immune system) that normally attacks foreign invaders and defend the body against foreign cells and infection. Thus, prevents organ rejection in transplanted patients and helps the body in accepting the new organ.

Take Tacronex-PG Solution as prescribed. You are advised to use Tacronex-PG Solution for as long as your doctor has recommended it for you based on your medical condition. Some people may experience nausea, diarrhoea, headache, kidney problems, infection, fever, constipation or high blood pressure. Most of these side effects of Tacronex-PG Solution do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

If you are allergic to Tacrolimus or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. If you are pregnant or a breastfeeding mother, it is advised to consult a doctor before using Tacronex-PG Solution. Avoid alcohol consumption with Tacronex-PG Solution. Drive only if you are alert, as Tacronex-PG Solution may cause some people vision problems or nervous disturbances. If you are about to get vaccinated, inform your doctor before taking Tacronex-PG Solution. Tacronex-PG Solution may increase the risk of infections or skin cancer as it lowers the body’s immune defence system.

FAQs

Tacronex-PG Solution contains Tacrolimus, an immunosuppressant that works by the activity of T and B lymphocytes (cells in the immune system) that normally attacks foreign invaders and defend the body against foreign cells and infection. As a result, it helps the body accept the new organ and prevents organ rejection in patients who have had organ transplants.

Tacronex-PG Solution may increase the risk of infections as it may weaken the immune system. Therefore, consult a doctor immediately if you have any signs of infection, such as sore throat or fever.

Tacronex-PG Solution may increase the risk of skin cancer. Therefore, avoid or limit exposure to the sun for a long time or artificial light such as tanning beds. Wear protective clothing and use sunscreen before going out in the sun.

If you are about to receive any vaccinations, especially live vaccines such as measles, mumps, rubella (MMR), oral polio, varicella, yellow fever, intranasal influenza, BCG and TY21a typhoid vaccines, inform your doctor that you are taking Tacronex-PG Solution because it may reduce the effectiveness of the vaccine and increase your risk of contracting the infection that the vaccine is meant to protect against.

Using Tacronex-PG Solution with Sirolimus is not recommended in patients who have had heart or liver transplants. It is unknown if kidney transplant recipients can use it safely. Hence, please seek medical advice before combining Tacronex-PG Solution with other medications.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Organ rejection: It occurs when a patient’s immune system recognizes the donor organ as foreign and tries to eliminate it. Organ rejection may be hyperacute (occurs in minutes to hours), acute (occurs within the first few months), or chronic (occurs after a year or anytime beyond). The symptoms of organ rejection may vary based on the type of organ transplant you have had. However, if you experience pain, fever, or other signs of illness, contact your doctor immediately.
