متن کاملTherapeutic drug monitoring
(Suggestions are based on Level III and IV evidence) • In both adults and children, C2 monitoring of CSA is superior to C0 as a predictor of AUC 0–4 and AUC 0–12. The C3 level is marginally superior to C2 for AUC 0–12. • Targeting AUC 0–4 levels for CSA of greater than 4400 ng/mL or C2 levels of greater than 1.5 by the end of the first week post transplant is associated with less acute rejectio...
متن کاملVoriconazole therapeutic drug monitoring.
We report on 28 patients who underwent voriconazole monitoring because of disease progression or toxicity. A relationship (P<0.025) between disease progression and drug concentration was detected. Favorable responses were observed in 10/10 patients with concentrations above 2.05 microg/ml, while disease progressed in 44% (n=18) of patients with concentrations below 2.05 microg/ml.
