DRUG TITLE Prograf (Tacrolimus) Prograf is used to prevent rejection of transplanted organs. Prograf is taken twice a day. Doses vary and are based on blood tests that measure the amount of Prograf in the body. Taking Prograf with food can reduce some of the abdominal pain that may occur when it is receiving, but the food can reduce the effective absorption of Prograf. This is especially when consuming fatty foods. Thus Prograf is best to take on an empty stomach. If it is taken with meals, it should be taken with foods that are not fat. THE MECHANISM OF ACTION Prograf is a drug that put down the immune system and is used to prevent rejection of transplanted organs. Prograf does its immune-overwhelming activity by inhibiting an enzyme (calcineurin), which is crucial for the reproduction of T-cells, which are vital to the immune process. Use of oral pills Prograf allows transplantation specialists in the body to reduce the dose of steroids, which are also used to prevent rejection. This "steroid sparing effect" is important because it can prevent the side effect that happens when large doses of steroids during their prolonged admission. Prograf was approved by the FDA in April 1994 for liver transplantation, and has been used in transplant patients heart, kidney, small intestine, and bone marrow transplantation.

Testimonials
When I first encountered erection problems, I thought of using Viagra. Got it from your shop, delivered as promised, no quality issues whatsoever. I started with 25mg which is half of the dosage and this was surprisingly enough! My penis became so hard and erection continued for like 30 minutes before I came. But I had another erection in less than 10 minutes. I am so pleased with this drug, I have a great erection as soon as I get aroused even a few hours after I’ve taken it.
