  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 survivor’s guilt or anxiety about the future.

  7. Financial Burden The cost of medications, medical appointments, and potential complications can place a financial strain on recipients and their families.
