Is Plucofor included in the medical insurance? Is the price of PULICO after medical insurance cheaper?

Proclofor is an immunosuppressant that is commonly used in clinical medicine to prevent allograft rejection after liver transplantation (including liver, kidney, heart, and pancreas) and diseases that require immunosuppressive treatment, such as lupus nephritis, membranous nephropathy, focal segmental tubular sclerosis, and subtle lesions. Let’s learn about getting into medical insurance today? Is the price of PULICO after medical insurance cheaper?

Proximity is a Class B medical insurance in my country. Patients can go to the local consultation for reimbursement, or they can obtain the drug through domestic professional overseas medical service agencies (such as Medical Companion Travel), which is more cost-effective. Due to the floating exchange rate, the price is not fixed. For specific prices, please consult Medical Companion Travel Service.

The immunosuppressive effect of Preclosumab is tens to hundreds of times that of cyclosporine in both in vitro and in vivo tests. Clinically, a concentration of 1% of Preclosumab is effective. In addition, the inhibitory effect on rejection reactions that have already occurred is better than that of cyclosporine. In the past immunosuppressive regimens based on cyclosporine, the problem of irreversible chronic rejection remained the same. Although increasing the dose had further effects, it also brought serious adverse reactions. Preclosumab is expected to reduce acute and chronic rejection in liver and kidney transplant recipients.

As follows:

Intravenous administration of Puracofu: The concentrated solution for infusion must be diluted with 5% glucose injection or physiological saline in a polyethylene or glass bottle. The concentration of the final infusion solution formed must be in the range of 0.004-0.1 mg/mL. Infuse 20-250 mL over 24 hours. This solution should not be administered in full at one time.

Proximax oral administration: Give the daily dose in two divided doses. It is best to take capsules on an empty stomach or at least 1 hour before or 2-3 hours after eating to achieve maximum absorption. When oral capsules are taken, they usually need to be taken continuously to inhibit transplant rejection, and there is no limit on the treatment period.

Intravenous therapy should be changed to oral therapy as soon as the patient's condition permits. IV therapy should not be administered for more than 7 consecutive days.

The actual dose of Proclofor should be adjusted based on the needs of individual patients. The recommended dose is only the starting dose. Therefore, the dose should be adjusted based on clinical judgment and supplemented by monitoring of tacrolimus blood concentration during treatment.
