Organ transplant rejection: When you get a new organ transplanted to your body, your body recognizes it as a foreign element, tries to attack and reject it because it is not originally part of your body. So, immunosuppressant drugs like cyclosporine are given to such patients to suppress the immune system, thereby preventing an attack on a newly transplanted organ. 

Rheumatoid arthritis: It is an autoimmune disease (the body's immune system attacks its tissue) that leads to joint pain and damage. Symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis include pain, inflammation of joints, difficulty moving, and swelling.

Psoriasis: It is a long-lasting, inflammatory skin illness. It is not infectious but has a tendency to run in families. It causes itchy and red patches on the skin.
