Summary
Envarsus XR is an extended release tacrolimus designed to deliver tacrolimus more consistently, thus avoiding large fluctuations of tacrolimus trough levels with Envarsus XR compared to immediate release tacrolimus. It is expected that patients with DGF on Envarsus XR will have more stable tacrolimus levels and facilitate early recover from DGF compared to immediate release tacrolimus.
