Ciclosporin, also spelled cyclosporine and cyclosporin, is a calcineurin inhibitor, used as an immunosuppressant medication. It is taken orally or intravenously for rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, Crohn's disease, nephrotic syndrome, eczema, and in organ transplants to prevent rejection.[14][15] It is also used as eye drops for keratoconjunctivitis sicca (dry eyes).[16]

Common side effects include high blood pressure, headache, kidney problems, increased hair growth, and vomiting.[15] Other severe side effects include an increased risk of infection, liver problems, and an increased risk of lymphoma.[15] Blood levels of the medication should be checked to decrease the risk of side effects.[15] Use during pregnancy may result in preterm birth; however, ciclosporin does not appear to cause birth defects.[17]

Ciclosporin is believed to work by decreasing the function of lymphocytes.[15] It does this by forming a complex with cyclophilin to block the phosphatase activity of calcineurin, which in turn decreases the production of inflammatory cytokines by T-lymphocytes.[18]

Ciclosporin was isolated in 1971 from the fungus Tolypocladium inflatum and came into medical use in 1983.[19] It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines.[20][21] In 2022, it was the 185th most commonly prescribed medication in the United States, with more than 2 million prescriptions.[22][23] It is available as a generic medication.[24]
