ADVERSE REACTIONS No phototoxicity and no photoallergenicity were detected in clinical studies with 12 and 216 normal volunteers, respectively. One out of 198 normal volunteers showed evidence of sensitization in a contact sensitization study. In three 12 week randomized vehicle-controlled studies and four safety studies, 655 and 9,163 patients respectively, were treated with Tacrolimus Ointment. The duration of follow-up for adult and pediatric patients in the safety studies is tabulated below. Duration of Follow-up in Four Open-label Safety Studies Time on Study Adult Pediatrics Total < 1 year 4682 4481 9163 ≥ 1 year 1185 1349 2534 ≥ 2 years 200 275 475 ≥ 3 years 118 182 300 The following table depicts the adjusted incidence of adverse events pooled across the 3 identically designed 12-week controlled studies for patients in vehicle, Tacrolimus Ointment 0.03%, and Tacrolimus Ointment 0.1% treatment groups. The table also depicts the unadjusted incidence of adverse events in four safety studies, regardless of relationship to study drug.

Post-Marketing Events The following adverse reactions have been identified during postapproval use of Tacrolimus Ointment. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure. CNS Seizures Neoplasms Lymphomas, basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, malignant melanoma Infections Bullous impetigo, osteomyelitis, septicemia Renal Acute renal failure in patients with or without Netherton's syndrome, renal impairment Skin Rosacea, application site edema
