A 55 year-old man with a previous medical history of hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis D virus (HDV) infection with decompensated cirrhosis underwent liver transplant (LT) in June 2018. Two weeks after an uneventful liver transplant the patient was taking tacrolimus 9 mg/day, mycophenolate mofet il 360 mg/12 h and prednisone 10 mg/day as part of immunosuppressive therapy, cotrimoxazole 160/800 mg/day, calcium/vitamin D, folic acid 5 mg/day, enalapril 5 mg/day, insulin and TDF 245 mg/day, the latter as a prophylaxis for hepatitis B.
