16
Q

Edetate calcium disodium (EDTA) SE

A

Malaise, fever, Renal toxicity (proximal tubules, distal tubules, glomeruli); ALT/AST increase

17
Q

Ferric hexacyanoferrate /Prussian Blue (Radiogardase) SE

A

Well tolerated; not absorbed after oral dosing into systemic circulation (this is pretty unique)

18
Q

Deferoxamine (Desferal) SE

A

Rate-related hypotension; anaphylactoid reactions; yersinia enterocolitis; acute lung injury/ARDS

19
Q

British Anti-Lewisite (Dimercaprol) MISC

A

Given IV or IM; allergic implications (peanut oil); need to start using ASAP

20
Q

2,3-dimercaptosuccinic acid (Succimer) MISC

A

Given orally onlu in US;given IV in other countries with more severe adverse events secondary to IV administration

21
Q

Edetate calcium disodium (EDTA) MISC

A

Given IV; DO NOT CONFUSE WITH Na2EDTA (can lead to life-threatening hypocalcemia); if given in lead encephalopathy, there is a potential to cause lead redistribution into the brain; BAL must be given before this in that scenario

22
Q

Ferric hexacyanoferrate /Prussian Blue (Radiogardase) MISC

A

Some concern that cyanide is liberated from Prussian Blue, however the amount released appears to be quantitatively minimal & not clinically significant

23
Q

Deferoxamine (Desferal) MISC

A

Can only treat for 24 hours before acute lung injury manifests
