Tacrolimus

• Do not stop taking your medication without checking with your healthcare professional.
• This medicine should be taken on an empty stomach – either 1 hours before food, or 2 hours after. This is because food can reduce the absorption of this medication into the body.
• However, you may take it after food if you experience persistent gastric side effects. Take Tacrolimus consistently either with or without food.
• For capsules: Swallow the capsule whole, do not crush or chew. 
• For suspension: Shake the suspension before taking.
  

If you forget to take a dose, take it as soon as you remember. Then take your next dose at the usual time. Do not take two doses to make up for the missed dose.
