Those are both safe to use. They won't cause rejection. Rejection only happens when the immune cells from the donor see the recipient’s body as foreign.

All we are saying is give thals a chance.

There is no need for chelation if the Ferritin is less than 2k post BMT. My child's Ferritin was 1600 post BMT and it has come down to less than 400 in about a year post transplant.
Regular transfusion, Keeping pre transfusion HB above 10 and Iron Chelation are the three mantras for thals to stay healthy.
