Dosing of the microemulsion formulation of cyclosporine (Neoral) is conventionally based on trough levels (C(0)). However, experience in renal transplantation has shown that cyclosporine exposure during the absorption phase (AUC(0-4)) is critical for optimizing immunosuppression, and that cyclosporine (CsA) concentration at 2 hours post-dose (C(2)) shows the closest correlation with AUC(0-4). This study evaluated whether C(2) values correlate more closely with AUC(0-4) than C(0) in lung transplant patients.
