Therapeutic drug monitoring in the treatment of tuberculosis.
Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) is a standard clinical technique used for many disease states, including many infectious diseases. As for these other conditions, the use of TDM in the setting of tuberculosis (TB) allows the clinician to make informed decisions regarding the timely adjustment of drug therapy. Such adjustments may not be required for otherwise healthy individuals who are respon...
متن کاملDiagnostic and Therapeutic Corner Therapeutic Drug Monitoring of Mycophenolic Acid
M ycophenolic acid (MPA)-based therapies are widely used in combination with calcineurin inhibitors as maintenance immunosuppression for kidney transplant recipients (1). The two MPA therapies used in clinical transplantation are mycophenolate mofetil (MMF [brand name CellCept, Roche Pharmaceuticals, Nutley, NJ]) and mycophenolate sodium (MPS [brand name Myfortic, Norvartis Pharmaceuticals, Nut...
متن کاملGenetic diversity within Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex impacts on the accuracy of genotypic pyrazinamide drug-susceptibility assay
We agree with Pholwat et al. [1] that fast genotypic methods will play an increasingly prominent role in drug-susceptibility testing (DST) for the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) [2]. They reported on the evaluation of a high-resolution melt assay (HMR) to detect pyrazinamide (PZA) resistance, which has the advantage of speed and simplicity. Two of 96 test isolates were PZA susceptibl...
متن کاملUse of therapeutic drug monitoring for multidrug-resistant tuberculosis patients.
STUDY OBJECTIVES Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) is the process of obtaining the serum concentration of a medication and modifying the dose based on the results. Little is known about the application of TDM in the treatment of patients with multidrug-resistant (MDR) tuberculosis (TB) in clinical practice. This study characterized how TDM was applied in the management of MDR TB patients, and e...
