A man with a kidney transplant taking corticosteroids and ciclosporin developed a cytomegalovirus infection that was treated with foscarnet 85 mg/kg daily. Despite efforts to minimise the nephrotoxic effects of the foscarnet (hydration with 2.5 litres of isotonic saline daily and nifedipine 80 mg the day before and during treatment) the patient developed non-ol-iguric worsening of his renal function after 8 days. Nine days after stopping the foscamet, the former renal function was restored. ... [Pg.1034]

Foscamet is an antiviral agent that inhibits replication of all known herpes viruses, including cytomegalovirus (CMV), herpes simplex virus types 1 and 2 (HSV-1, HSV-2), human herpes virus 6 (HHV-6), Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and varicella-zoster virus (VZV). It is indicated in the treatment of CMV retinitis in patients with AIDS treatment of acyclovir-resistant mucocutaneous HSV infections in immunocompromised patients and as combination therapy with ganciclovir for patients who have relapsed after monotherapy with either drug. [Pg.286]
