Anti rejection drugs from heart transplant, can this cause personality change?

Not impossible: Talk with your physicians to let them know the details and perhaps they can make changes that will help. Absolutely do not change your dose or medication without doctor's advice. Promise? Be well!

Unlikely: Prednisone can cause mood changes in higher doses, but not true personality changes. The other medications don't really affect the personality.
