Q

Amphotericin B Deoxycholate

A

BW: do NOT exceed 1.5 mg/kg/day because of cardiopulmonary arrest

SE: infusion related rxn (fever, HA, malaise, rigors), decreased K, decreased Mg, NEPHROTOXICITY

*compatible with D5W only

*requires premedication to prevent infusion rxn:
- APAP, NSAID
-Benadryl, Hydrocortisone
-NS bolus to help with nephrotoxicity
- maybe meperidine to decrease rigors
