At The Liver Brand, we understand that the liver transplant process can be difficult and confusing, especially with so many myths surrounding it. One common myth is that if you have had addiction issues, you must wait and “prove” sobriety for a minimum of six months before possibly getting on the list.

While some doctors still share this information with their patients, it is not necessarily true anymore.

In the past, this rule was more strictly followed, but now, there are doctors and transplant coordinators who understand better. There are ways to prove your sobriety and gather the necessary documentation to help you get on the transplant list sooner.

We want to make it clear that you should always consult with your doctor and treatment team about getting on the list.

However, at The Liver Brand, we can devote our time and resources to help you navigate this sometimes overwhelming process. We are here to provide resources and assistance, and we make ourselves available for a call whenever you need. Waiting to get questions answered can be stressful, especially when dealing with liver health.

This service is completely voluntary and aligns with our "Why," "Values," and mission at The Liver Brand. We are here to support you every step of the way
