If you experience any signs of rejection such as fever, pain over the transplant site, or decreased urine output, contact PSRI Hospital's transplant coordinator immediately at the emergency hotline provided during discharge.
To prevent infection, strictly follow the hand hygiene protocols and avoid crowded places for at least 3 months post-transplant. PSRI provides a detailed infection prevention guide during discharge.
If you miss a dose of immunosuppressant medication, do not double the next dose. Instead, call PSRI's transplant pharmacy at the number on your medication list for specific instructions.

If you notice sudden weight gain or swelling in your legs, it could indicate fluid retention. Contact PSRI's transplant team immediately, as this may require adjustment of your diuretic or immunosuppressant therapy.
