Have you received warning about Paxlovid from your transplant team?

I would like to hear what Mayo Transplant says about it, but if they approve I might try to get it. I have heard nothing on it from them or my PCP. My PCP is very hesitant to prescribe anything it seems. I would certainly push for it if it’s available and proven to work and if Mayo backed me up. I would love to feel confident about traveling and getting out more! Have you actually received the Evusheld antibodies yet? Please keep us updated!

Hi @jennifer0726 😊 Yes, I definitely agree to discuss everything with transplant. My understanding is that Mayo is developing their guidelines regarding Evusheld and they will contact the appropriate immune suppressed patients through the portal when they are eligible. (I am not certain that each location has even received their supply from the federal government yet). But just a heads up....the current efficacy rate is listed at 77%, so it's not perfect. By the way, Congrats on your 13 month post kidney transplant anniversary!! Is everything going smoothly for you?
