management of pernicious anemia/ vit 12 deficiency anemia

A
  • IM, SC vit B12 1000ug daily for 1 wk
  • Follow: 1000 ug weekly x 4wks
  • Follow: 1000ug mnthly for life

PO often insufficient

  • PO Vit B12, 1000ug ~ 2000ug daily
    Absorbed by mass action, not rely on intrinsic factor action
    *or when IF not that low
32
Q

folate deficiency tx

A

1mg/d folate for 1-4mnths

Or

Until hematologic recovery, normal Hb
Multivitamin (sangobion, ferrous gluconate)

33
Q

tx for Fe deficiency

A

Sufficient Fe = 1000 - 1500mg of elemental Fe for complete supplementation

Ferrous gluconate tab 30mg sangobion (12%)
Iron polymaltose 100mg Maltofer (100%)
(20-30 ~~ 200mg). 3-6 mnths to replenish

34
Q

management of aplastic anemia

A

1) Withdraw causative drug

2) improve peripheral blood counts Transfusion of erythrocytes and PLT

  • Granulocyte-macrophage CSF: sargramostim,
  • G-CSF: filgrastim, pegfilgrastim
  • IL-14

3) minimise risk for infections
* Ab prophylaxis, antifungal
* Neutrophil count <500 cells/mm3

4) Haematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT)

5) Immunosuppressants while bone marrow recovers
* Glucocorticoids
* Ciclosporin
* Cyclophosphamide
* Azathioprine
* Antithymocyte Ig

35
Q

do not heavily transfuse

A

iron overload

require Fe chelation
- Defoxamine
- Deferasirox

36
Q

tx for HIT

A

1) Hold offending drug
Recover in 1-2 days. Complete in 1wk
Ab may persist for years, do not restart. avoid indefinitely

2) KIV corticosteroid if severe

3) Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia
*DOAC: dabigatran (off-label)

37
Q

tx for immune thrombocytopenia

A

1) Withdraw causative drug

2) Immunosuppressants (KIV)
- Glucocorticoids
- Ciclosporin
- Cyclophosphamide
- Azathioprine
- Antithymocyte Ig

3) Transfusion of PLT
Clinically sig bleeding

38
Q

agranulocytosis tx

A

1) Withdraw causative drug
- blood count usually returns to norm in 2-4wks (~4-24days)

2) Prophylactic administration of hematopoietic GF
* GM -CSF: sargramostim
○ More potent, more ADR as it stimulates diff type of blood cells
* G-CSF: filgrastim (sc 300mcg/day), pegfilgrastim
