Abstract: AIM: To study the eflect of berberinhydrochloride (Ber) on the elevation of blod concentra-tion of Cyelosporin A (CsA) and liver and renal functionsin renal transplanted recipients. METHODS: 138 caseswith renal transplantation in experimental group weretreated with CsA and Ber and 150 cases with renal trans-plantation in control group received CsA only. Blood lev-els of CsA, biochemistry indexes for liver and renal func-tion were detennined. RESULTS: After 1,3,6 monthscombined with Ber, blood concentrations of CsA in pa-tients went up by 49.8%,81 4%.36.9% and the radiosof blood concentration of CsA to CsA dosage inereased taking Ber(P < 0.01). ht had a sigifiant increase com-pared with the control group(P < 0.01). No significantffet on liver or renal function was obsenved when com-bined with Ber and CsA. CONCLUSION: Ber couldmarkedly elevale the blood concentration of CsA in renaltransplanted recipients and did not inerease the toxicity ofCsA. Ber combined with CsA can be used as a method forsaving money on CsA.
