Tacroren 1 Capsule 10's contains Tacrolimus, which works by suppressing the activity of T and B lymphocytes (cells in the immune system) that normally attacks foreign invaders and defend the body against foreign cells and infection. Thus, prevents organ rejection in transplanted patients and helps the body in accepting the new organ.
