Özet

Background. Although tacrolimus is one of the essential drugs used for the prevention of rejection in kidney recipients, target trough levels are not well established. In this study, we aimed to investigate the association between average tacrolimus trough levels (TTLs) of the first month after transplantation and biopsy-proven acute rejection (BPAR) during the first 12 months after transplant.
