Therapeutic drug monitoring is a valuable tool supporting immunosuppressive therapy. Significant variation of immunosuppressive drug (ISD) concentrations during their use at similar doses is the basis of dose-normalization strategy. The strategy of dose-adjustment is proposed to identify variability in the rate of ISD metabolism. While the parent drug-to-metabolite ratio (metabolic ratio, MR) represents the rate of formation of individual metabolites. The present study was aimed at evaluation of associations between ISDs' metabolism rate expressed as dose-adjusted concentrations (C/D) and dose/kg-adjusted concentrations (C/D/kg) and MRs of individual metabolites of tacrolimus, cyclosporine A and MPA precursors.
