Around 5,000 patients with kidney failure are struggling to get their dialysis medications, says the head of the Organ Transplantation Organization, Muhammad Abu Dabous.

Abu Dabous said that the clinics lack the tools needed for treatment, which could put the patients' lives at risk.

"More than a thousand people use immunosuppressive drugs, including those who had kidney and liver transplants surgery, and if they don't have access to their medications, they will go on dialysis treatment," he added.

In early June, 35 patients died, and 25 others were put on dialysis treatment due to the lack of immunosuppressive drugs after kidney transplantation, according to the Organ Transplantation Organization.
