Some general considerations of taking Prograf:

This medication comes in the form of a capsule and an injection. The capsules are taken by mouth twice a day. The injection is given as a continuous, slow infusion into a vein (intravenously, or by IV).

You can take Prograf with food or on an empty stomach; however, it should always be taken exactly the same way, with the same amount of time between doses and meals each day.

Take your doses at the same time each day, 12 hours apart. This helps to keep an even level of the drug in your bloodstream.

Do not drink grapefruit juice or eat grapefruit while taking this medicine.

For the medication to work properly, it must be taken as prescribed.

However, please do consult with the doc who prescribed the med for more info, take care, best wishes!
