Love yr Second life: First: it is illegal. Second: posttransplant means u r taking multiple medications such as immunosupressants to protect the kidney from rejection, thus these meds affect liver and kidneys over time. Taking any other chemicals into your body will strain your liver/kidneys further. Someone loves u enough 2 give u a kidney/a second chance of life, please don't do fullish things. Be good. Good luck.

Same risks As withou: Same risks of taking them without a transplant. In addition if there is some sort of fungus or bacteria associated with the product this could increase the risk of infection in an immunosuppressed transplant patient. In any case there is certainly no information about this question based on any kind of scientific study.
