title: [Blood concentrations and side effects of tacrolimus in a living renal transplantation].
abstract: In a living renal transplantation, the recipients are administered an immunosuppressive agent preoperatively. The drug exhibits a high incidence of side effects of special note. We examined the side effects of tacrolimus to evaluate the postoperative management of living renal transplantation. Hypertension, hyperglycemia, tachycardia and chest pain were found as the side effects. The blood concentration should be measured frequently to maintain the effective blood concentration and to prevent the side effect.
