Sirolimus by LC-MS/MS near me in Kanpur

The Sirolimus by LC-MS/MS test is a blood test that is used to monitor levels of sirolimus, an immunosuppressive medication commonly prescribed to prevent organ rejection in transplant recipients. It helps doctors ensure that patients maintain optimal levels of sirolimus in their blood, minimizing the risk of transplant rejection while avoiding toxicity. This test is useful for individuals who have undergone organ transplants, are undergoing dosage adjustments, showing signs of potential side effects or toxicity, or possible organ rejection. It is typically performed at regular intervals post-transplant to ensure that patients achieve and maintain the right levels of sirolimus in the body.

This test utilizes advanced LC-MS/MS (liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry) technology, which allows for the detection and accurate quantification of even very low concentrations of tacrolimus in the blood. LC-MS/MS offers the advantage of higher sensitivity and specificity over immunoassays and is considered the gold standard. This enhances the reliability of results and enables timely, precise dosage adjustments, helping doctors optimize treatment and reduce the risk of complications.
