Abstract
Given the fact that proton pump inhibitors are known to be interfering with the amount of drugs available for absorption (139) and low MPA exposure is associated with acute rejection risk (88), it is necessary to evaluate the impact of pantoprazole as a proton pump inhibitor on the pharmacokinetics of MPA after intake with mycophenolate mofetil and EC-MPS in renal transplant patients.
