Sulfadiazine therapy for toxoplasmosis in heart transplant recipients decreases cyclosporine concentration.

C H Spes1, C E Angermann, H U Stempfle, K Wenke, K Theisen.   

Abstract

Toxoplasmosis may cause serious problems after organ transplantation. For treatment of active infection, pyrimethamine combined with a sulfonamide is recommended. During oral sulfadiazine therapy, a significant decrease in cyclosporine concentrations was observed in three heart transplant recipients. This interaction has not been reported previously.
