Patient summary

Sirolimus 1mg tablets, used in the management of transplant rejection. An mTOR inhibitor that holds T-cells and B-cells back from activation.

Mechanism of action

Sirolimus acts as an mTOR inhibitor that prevents the activation of T-cells and B-cells in response to cytokine stimulation. By blocking this cell cycle progression, it effectively prevents the immunological mechanisms that cause organ rejection.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding

Pregnancy: Must not be used in pregnancy. Breastfeeding: Must not be used while breastfeeding.

Rapamycin contains Sirolimus, an active ingredient used to assist in the management of transplant rejection. The same active ingredient is also sold as Rapamune, supplied as a tablet in 1mg strength.
