Switched from Tacrolimus to Belatacept

@benedict66066 just my opinions but I think its because it's a newer drug and hasn't been integrated into established/proven protocols. Then there's also possible adherence issues since you have to go to an infusion center every 28 days... And the cost... MUCH more expensive than an rx for tacrolimus.

@2gallonhabit Thanks for this. I'm on Medicare and I am told it is covered. But! I'm still at the beginning stages of investigating this drug. I've watched many videos and read many studies. I appreciate you taking the time. Best to you.
