Sirova 1mg Tablet

Sirova 1 mg Tablet – Sirolimus for Prevention of Kidney Transplant Rejection

Sirova 1 mg Tablet contains Sirolimus 1 mg, a prescription immunosuppressant medicine used to help prevent the body from rejecting a transplanted kidney. It is generally prescribed as part of a transplant treatment regimen that may include other immunosuppressant medicines. Sirolimus works by inhibiting certain immune-system cells that may recognize the transplanted kidney as foreign and attack it. By reducing this immune response, Sirova 1 mg Tablet helps the body accept and maintain the transplanted organ. Take Sirova 1 mg Tablet exactly as prescribed by your transplant specialist. Regular blood tests are required to monitor sirolimus levels, kidney function, blood cell counts, cholesterol levels, and treatment response.
