Update of current immunosuppressive drugs used in clinical organ transplantation.
The outcome of clinical organ transplantations has improved considerably during the last decade, mainly due to the introduction and administration of new drugs for immunosuppression. Our knowledge of basic immune reactions has led to the development of a variety of new immunosuppressants that promise higher selectivity and additive or synergistic drug effects combined with less toxicity. This article gives a brief update of the immunosuppressive currently used in clinical organ transplantation.
