Yes, I took it for 2 years. Liver transplant in 1998, GYN cancer in 2018 plus marginal kidney numbers were the reason to switch me to Everolimus. No issues came from it but in 2020 I had pelvic surgery for the GYN cancer and by then it had become known that Everolimus significantly slows down healing which was problematic after the massive surgery in 2020. For that reason I was switched back to Tacrolimus. I tried to switch back to Everolimus last year to help the kidneys, by then the manufacturer of Everolimus was no longer offering it free through their Foundation. Mayo is willing to prescribe it but I cannot afford it.

Have you ever tried Goodrx. I looked up Everolimus and it is on there. Since I don't know your dose or how much you take, I couldn't look up a price. I get all of my transplant drugs from Goodrx. My tacrolimus is under $50. For a 3 month supply.
