1
Organ Transplant recipients challenges
2
Immunosuppressive Medications
Recipients need to take lifelong
immunosuppressive drugs to prevent organ
rejection. These medications can have side
effects and require strict adherence.
3
Regular Medical Check-Ups
Continuous medical monitoring is essential to
ensure the health of the transplanted organ,
which can mean frequent doctor visits and tests.
4
Infection Risk
Immunosuppression weakens the immune system,
making recipients more susceptible to infections.
They need to be cautious about exposure to
illnesses.
5
Lifestyle Modifications
Dietary changes, exercise routines, and
medication schedules must be carefully followed
to support the new organ.
6
Emotional Struggles
Post-transplant, individuals may grapple with
complex emotions, including survivors guilt or
anxiety about the future.
7

The cost of medications, medical appointments,
and potential complications can place a financial
