What are the side effects of Cyclosporine (Neoral)?
Two of the most serious side effects are kidney damage and high blood pressure. Both of these problems, however, are usually easy to manage and are reversible. You may need to take a blood pressure lowering medication while on cyclosporine as well as a supplement of magnesium. You will generally need to continue taking cyclosporine for months or even years. If you have a stable, positive response to the drug, your doctor will gradually decrease the dosage.
