Tacrolimus is the active ingredient in the medication.It is an immunosuppressant drug, meaning it suppresses the body's immune system.
Organ transplantation (kidney, liver, heart, lung, pancreas): To prevent organ rejection.
Severe autoimmune diseases (rheumatoid arthritis, lupus): To suppress the immune system and reduce inflammation.
