19
Q

CMV prophylaxis

A

valganciclovir

20
Q

CMV

A

most common following solid organ transplant

1-4 months after transplant

infected when child with chicken pox

remains dormant in CN ganglia - dorsal ganglia

reactivation - herpes zoster

23
Q

Tx of varicella zoster

A

acyclovir

oral - shingles
IV - if immunocompromised

24

varicella zoster vaccine

A

adults > 60yo
live attenuated

not in immunocompromised
