Abstract
We retrospectively collected information about 29 cancer patients who underwent measurement of their plasma concentration (PC) of voriconazole (VRC) (2002-2006). Nine patients (31%) had VRC PC <1 microg/ml. VRC PC <1 microg/ml occurred in 7 of 10 patients who were on VRC >2 months versus only 2 of 19 patients who were on VRC <2 months (P=0.001). VRC PCs were infrequently ordered, did not follow clear indications, and the use of the results was variable.Entities:
