Rapamune (Sirolimus) is utilized in combination with other medications to prevent the rejection of a transplanted kidney. 

It is classified as an immunosuppressant and functions by weakening the body's defense system, or immune system, to facilitate the acceptance of the new organ as if it were part of the recipient's own body.

In addition to its use in preventing organ rejection, Sirolimus may also be employed to treat a specific lung disease known as lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM), expanding its potential therapeutic applications beyond transplant medicine.

As an immunosuppressant, Sirolimus operates by modulating the body's immune response, thereby reducing the risk of rejection and promoting successful integration of the transplanted kidney.

Do’s

  • Take Rapamune exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider, typically once daily.
  • If you experience nausea or an upset stomach, take it with food. However, choose either with or without food and stick to that routine for every dose.
  • Use the provided amber oral dose syringe to measure your medication accurately. Don't use household spoons.
  • Mix the measured dose with at least 2 ounces of water or orange juice in a designated plastic or glass container. Stir well and drink the entire mixture immediately. Repeat with another 4 ounces of liquid to ensure you consume the entire dose. Don't prepare the mixture in advance.
  • Take Rapamune regularly at the same time each day to maximize its effectiveness.
  • Discuss any changes in your medical condition with your healthcare provider, especially if LAM symptoms worsen.

Don'ts

  • Don't Change your dosage without consulting your healthcare provider. Taking more Rapamune won't improve your condition faster and might increase side effects.
  • Don't stop taking Rapamune abruptly. Always consult your healthcare provider first.
  • Don't use a household spoon for measuring.
  • Don't reuse the oral dose syringe. Use a new one for each dose.
  • Don't mix Rapamune with any liquids other than water or orange juice.
  • Don't consume grapefruit or grapefruit juice unless your healthcare provider approves it, as it can affect how Rapamune works.
  • Don't take Rapamune with cyclosporine within 4 hours. There should be a 4-hour gap between the two medications.
