AbstractWe present a 31-year-old female who had undergone an allogeneic bone marrow transplantation and who was started on intravenous posaconazole for pulmonary mycosis while undergoing continuous venovenous hemofiltration (CVVH). We performed steady-state pharmacokinetic evaluations for both posaconazole and sulfobutylether-β-cyclodextrin (SBECD). SBECD was effectively removed by CVVH, with observed exposure similar to that for patients with moderate renal impairment. Intravenous posaconazole at standard doses may be utilized in critically ill patients undergoing CVVH without significant risk of SBECD accumulation.Copyright © 2015, American Society for Microbiology.
