immuniskomprimert
Immuniskomprimert refers to a condition in which the immune system is compromised, leading to a reduced ability to fight off infections and diseases. This can occur due to various factors, including age, underlying medical conditions, medications, or certain treatments.

- Medical conditions: Diseases such as HIV/AIDS, diabetes, and certain cancers can weaken the immune system.
- Medications: Some medications, such as corticosteroids and chemotherapy drugs, can suppress the immune system.
