Thank you Rosemary. I am currently taking prednisone only, but need to add another immunosuppressant to manage my Nephrotic Syndrome MCD. I am researching efficacy and side effects for tacrolimus and mycophenolate for my condition. I appreciate your input and am happy to read you are a long-term kidney and liver transplant patient! 👍

Hello I was dx with MCD overa year ago. I had never heard of it prior to my dx. I was treated with Prednisone with limited results. I started taking Tacrolimus 3 months ago, 3mg 2X daily. Besides being expensive I hate the side effects. Can anyone tell me how often you have to have blood levels done? Is it possible to go into full remission of MCD?
