It is used in combination with other medicines to make it much more likely that your transplant operation will be successful. You should continue taking the medicine and should not stop it until your doctor says so.In Prevention of organ rejection in transplant patients : Degraf 0.5 Capsule belongs to a group of medicines known as immunosuppressants.
