What does it do?

Tacrolimus hydrate is classified as an immunosuppressant and is primarily used to suppress immune responses in autoimmune diseases or post-transplant. This component is included in pharmaceuticals to control excessive immune responses, reduce inflammation, and prevent tissue damage.

Tacrolimus hydrate inhibits the activation process of immune cells by blocking intracellular signaling in immune cells. As a result, the immune response is diminished, leading to reduced inflammation and tissue damage.

Good to know

Unlike other immunosuppressants such as cyclosporine, tacrolimus hydrate works by inhibiting calcineurin. This leads to a selective suppression of specific immune pathways.
