💜💚It has been one year since the Gift of Hope Organ Donor Care Center at Rush officially launched!

Allergies are common, especially during the fall 🍂and spring🌱season.

💊Pseudoephedrine containing products such as Sudafed, Claritin-D, Zyrtec-D Allegra-D, and Mucinex D are NOT ⚠️recommended to use for long durations after your kidney donation, because they can raise your blood pressure and put stress on your remaining kidney. These should be avoided completely or if used, it must be done only with medical guidance.
Instead, choose alternatives like anti-histamines that do not contain pseudoephedrine, such as Zyrtec or Claritin (without the “-D”).

Let’s keep that kidney safe!

We have been delighted the last six weeks to have💊👩🏻‍⚕️ pharm students, Nancy and Iman, be a part of our transplant program.
They joined the transplant program as part of their rotation with UIC College of Pharmacy. Nancy said, “my favorite learning experience over the past 6 weeks at Rush was working closely and learning from the amazing transplant team, and what I most like about transplant is witnessing upfront the complex concepts that allow for transplantation to be feasible and safe in modern medicine!”

💫Good luck on your future endeavors, Nancy and Iman!💫
