📋Overview
Tacrolimus is an immunosuppressant medication that helps reduce the activity of the body's immune system. It is commonly associated with organ transplantation, where it is used to help prevent the body from rejecting a transplanted organ. Tacrolimus is also linked to certain autoimmune and inflammatory conditions, such as eczema and other skin disorders. Its primary role is to modulate immune responses in situations where overactivity of the immune system can cause harm.
