Which companies make tacrolimus?
Tacrolimus is made by multiple drug manufacturers worldwide, and the exact “manufacturer” can depend on the specific product (brand vs. generic) and the dosage form (capsules, extended-release capsules, or topical ointment). The manufacturer listed on the bottle or package is the company responsible for that specific version.
How to find the exact manufacturer for the tacrolimus you have
Check the label for these details:
- Brand or generic name (for example, tacrolimus capsules vs. extended-release tacrolimus)
- Strength (mg)
- Dosage form (immediate-release vs. extended-release; oral vs. topical)
- The “Manufactured for/By” or “Distributed by” line and the address
That information is usually the most reliable way to identify the manufacturer for your exact product.
Are there different manufacturers for tacrolimus capsules vs. tacrolimus ointment?
Yes. Oral tacrolimus (used for transplant rejection prevention) and topical tacrolimus (used for certain skin conditions) are typically supplied under different product lines and may have different companies.
Want the manufacturer of a specific tacrolimus product?
If you share any one of the following, I can help narrow it down to the likely manufacturer(s):
- The brand/generic name on the box
- Strength (e.g., 0.5 mg, 1 mg, 3 mg, 5 mg)
- Whether it’s immediate-release or extended-release
- Country (US, UK, Canada, EU, etc.)
