Abstract:
WE have shown in a previous study that converting
renal transplant recipients from regular Sandimmun
(SIM) to the new cyclosporine A (CyA) formulation
Consupren (CON) could be achieved safely with preservation
of a good graft function, no added renal or extrarenal
toxicity, and with significant cost benefits. The present study
extends the use of CON as a primary immunosuppressant
drug utilized de novo in the immediate posttransplant
period
