Tacrolimus 1mg hard capsules are a type of medication primarily used as an immunosuppressant to prevent organ rejection after a transplant.¹

Here is a general description:

💊 Key Information

Feature	Description
Active Ingredient	Tacrolimus (1 milligram)
Therapeutic Class	Immunosuppressant (specifically a Calcineurin Inhibitor)
Primary Use	Prevention of organ rejection in patients receiving allogeneic (donor) organ transplants (e.g., kidney, liver, heart, lung).
Mechanism of Action	It works by suppressing the body's immune system response, which helps prevent the immune system from recognizing and attacking the transplanted organ.
Common Dosage Form	Immediate-release hard capsule. (Extended-release forms are also available under different names.)

🔍 Appearance

The exact appearance (color, shape, and imprint) can vary depending on the manufacturer and brand (like Prograf, Tacrolim, or generics). However, they are generally:

Shape: Capsule/Oblong²
Color: Varies by manufacturer/brand. Common colors for the 1mg strength include brown & white, white, or blue & gray.³
Imprint: Contains markings that identify the drug and strength (e.g., "S 644," "G 686," "1MG RDY 526" for different brands).⁴

⚠️ Important Notes

Prescription Only: Tacrolimus is a powerful prescription-only medication and should only be taken exactly as prescribed by a healthcare provider experienced in transplant management.⁵
Administration: It is typically taken twice daily, and often on an empty stomach (at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after a meal).
Side Effects: Common side effects can include kidney problems, tremors, high blood pressure, and increased blood sugar levels. Due to the suppression of the immune system, there is also an increased risk of serious infections.
Monitoring: Regular blood tests are essential to monitor the drug's level in the body to ensure it is within the correct therapeutic range.

If you have a specific capsule and need to confirm its identity, it is best to consult a pharmacist or your doctor.
