Complications immediately after surgery include clotting of the arteries or veins of the new<unk>  (thrombosis), inflammation of the<unk>  <unk> itis), infection, bleeding and rejection. Rejection may occur immediately or at any time during the patient's life. This is because the transplanted<unk>  comes from another organism, thus the recipient's immune system will consider it as an aggression and try to combat it. Organ rejection is a serious condition and ought to be treated immediately. In order to prevent it, patients must take a regimen of immunosuppressive drugs. Drugs are taken in combination consisting normally of ciclosporin, azathioprine and corticosteroids. But as episodes of rejection may reoccur throughout a patient's life, the exact choices and dosages of immunosuppressants may have to be modified over time. Sometimes tacrolimus is given instead of ciclosporin and mycophenolate mofetil instead of azathioprine.
