A

foscarnet

43
Q

ADVERSE EFFECT OF FOSCARNET

A
  1. Nephrotoxicity— Increase in serum creatinine levels occurs on average in 45% of patients receiving foscarnet. Other nephrotoxic drugs should be avoided. Nephrotoxicity is usually reversible and can be reduced by dosage adjustment and adequate hydration.
  2. Electrolytedisturbances — Changes in calcium, magnesium, potassium and phosphate levels occurs commonly and regular monitoring of electrolytes is necessary to avoid clinical toxicity
  3. Genitalulceration— Occurs more commonly in men and usually occurs during induction use of foscarnet. It is most likely a contact dermatitis due to high concentrations of foscarnet in urine. It usually resolves rapidly following discontinuation of the drug.
  4. CNS —Paresthesia,irritabilityandhallucinations.
