It is not an organ which contains the immunosuppressive drugs used to prevent rejection - the drugs are manufactured in a laboratory, in the same manner that something as simple as Paracetamol would be manufactured. These drugs can then be given to the transplant recipient orally (including via a nasal-gastric tube) or via an IV drip.
Recipients are given immuno-suppressant drugs to prevent transplant rejection and attenuate the immune response
It is an anti rejection medication. That is to say it suppresses the immune system so it does not fight the foreign material (solid organ or soft tissue transplant)
The most common and dangerous complications of heart transplant surgery are organ rejection and infection. Immunosuppressive drugs are given to prevent rejection of the heart.

It's crucial for transplant recipients to consult their healthcare provider before adding any supplements, including Cordyceps, to their regimen to ensure safety and compatibility with their treatment plan.
