In six of twelve orthotopic liver recipients nephrotoxicity was noted after 13-22 days of treatment with 16.3 + or - 2.9 (SEM) mg/kg per day of cyclosporin A (CyA). With a decrease in the daily CyA dose to 9.2 + or - 2.3 (SEM) mg/kg kidney function returned to normal. No hepatic rejections occurred on this lowered CyA dose. In 4 out of 66 kidney recipients a switch from a CyA dose of 5.2 - 10.7...
