Venlafaxine aggravating interstitial pneumonia: A case report
Int J Clin Pharmacol Ther. 2023 Nov 16. doi: 10.5414/CP204459. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTA 70-year-old male taking venlafaxine for depression developed interstitial pneumonia and was admitted with shortness of breath and dyspnea. A computed tomography (CT) chest scan showed diffuse multiple lung lesions in both lungs, suggesting interstitial changes with inflammation or exudation. Compared with the CT chest scan 1 month earlier, there were significant progresses and new findings. The clinical diagnosis was interstitial pneumonia with pulmonary infection. The patient had been treated with fluvoxamine 100 mg/day, duloxet...

Monitoring of blood levels in patients administered CYP3A4 inhibitor during the maintenance phase of venetoclax administration
CONCLUSION: The risk of elevated venetoclax blood levels needs to be considered when initiating CYP3A4 inhibitors and reducing venetoclax dosage on the same day.PMID:37969095 | DOI:10.5414/CP204490 (Source: International Journal of Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics)

Effect of pre-treatment of EGFR-TKIs on immune checkpoint inhibitor-associated interstitial lung disease in lung cancer patients: Analysis using a Japanese claims database
CONCLUSION: Although further analyses are required to confirm our findings, this study indicated that pre-treatment with EGFR-TKI might not increase the ILD risk after ICI treatment.PMID:37969096 | DOI:10.5414/CP204491 (Source: International Journal of Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics)

Is compressed colchicine tablet superior to other colchicine preparations in patients with familial Mediterranean fever?
CONCLUSION: Compressed colchicine tablets were shown to be superior to other colchicine preparations and compressed colchicine tablets to be a useful treatment option before initiating biological agents in patients who were unresponsive to coated colchicine.PMID:37969097 | DOI:10.5414/CP204494 (Source: International Journal of Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics)

Predictors for non-attainment of meropenem target concentrations when treating infections in critically ill patients
CONCLUSION: In addition to the expected risk factors (age and dosage), ARC was a predictor for non-attainment of the target concentration. The risk of non-attainment of target concentrations increased with an increase in creatinine clearance. Attention should be given to ARC and creatinine clearance when administering meropenem by intravenous infusion.PMID:37969092 | DOI:10.5414/CP204412 (Source: International Journal of Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics)
