I am a renal transplant patient. My ciclosporin and everolimus level was low and serum creatinine was 1.45. My doctor increased my neoral (ciclosporin) and certican (everolimus) dose, now the ciclosporin and everolimus level are fine but serum creatinine increased to 2.0. Is this because of change in dose. Please advise how to control the serum creatinine.

Creatinine depends on many factors. Cyclosporine levels and everolimus levels n3ed to be maintained in a specific range to avoid rejection and to avoid side effects too. Just wait for some time for better understanding of how your kidney responds to the medicines. Be in touch with a nephrologist to ensure good long term kidney graft function.
