Tremors post kidney transplant
Transplants | Last Active: Sep 4, 2022 | Replies (44)Comment receiving replies
I had kidney transplant 3 years ago. I’ve recently had my Tac start to rise. I think Mine may be from adjustment on how I take my meds. I take them one hour before I eat and don’t eat anything for two hours after. Before I was taking them right before I ate. I was constantly dealing with upset stomach. That’s completely gone away. I retest again next week to see if there will be adjustment. Do you take meds and eat meals the same way everyday for absorbing meds?

Yes. I researched the best ways to take Tacrolimus to get the best results, which is on an empty stomach. So, for me, it works to take it at 8 am, before eating and wait until at least 9 to eat. Then, I do my best to eat supper by 5 pm, so I’m done eating by 6 to allow 2 hours before evening meds. And, of course, I drink at least one glass of water when taking the meds.
