I take 4mg of tacrolimus a day. Been taking it for four years. I’ve recently started wanting to enjoy a glass of wine in the evening but I’m not sure if it’s safe.
Is it OK/safe to drink wine while taking oral tacrolimus?

What should I avoid while taking tacrolimus?
Avoid receiving a "live" vaccine. The vaccine may not work as well while you are using tacrolimus. Live vaccines include measles, mumps, rubella (MMR), rotavirus, typhoid, yellow fever, varicella (chickenpox), and zoster (shingles).
Grapefruit may interact with tacrolimus and cause side effects. Avoid consuming grapefruit products.
