Background: Equoral(®) is a generic formulation of Cyclosporine A (CsA), which is significantly cheaper than the original medicine. Our center participated in the clinical trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Equoral(®) in kidney transplant recipients in the first 9 months after a transplant procedure. The aim of our paper is to present the 5-year follow-up of patients who participated in the study and were monitored in our center.

The aim of our study was to compare the pharmacokinetics and safety of Equoral to Neoral solution among ASCT recipients.
Patients And Methods: Our open-label, two-way crossover, randomized controlled trial compared Equoral versus Neoral solutions in ASCT recipients.
