* subjects with malignancies or a history of malignancy within the last 5 years, with the exception of those with basalioma or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin
* subjects with systemic infection requiring treatment, except viral hepatitis
* subjects with severe diarrhoea, vomiting, active peptic ulcer or gastrointestinal disorder that may affect the absorption of tacrolimus
* subjects with serum creatinine \> 1.5mg/dl
* subjects taking or having taken potassium preserved diuretics
* subjects with any form of substance abuse, psychiatric disorder or condition which, in the opinion of the investigator, may complicate communication with the investigator
