Abstract
The results of the present study suggest that EMIT method might be preferred to MEIA II in determination of whole blood tacrolimus concentrations in anemic transplant patients. For better therapeutic drug monitoring, physicians should be aware of these assay differences. Evaluation of hematologic factors that affect the whole blood concentrations of tacrolimus may be helpful in deciding the dosage of this drug.
