Sirolimus-related pulmonary toxicity mimicking 'asthma like' symptoms.

G-L Gupte1, S Mahadevan, J-R Clarke, H Alton, S-V Beath.   

Abstract

Sirolimus is an immunosuppressant with expanding use in pediatric organ transplantation, dermatology and rheumatology. We report two cases of children who developed asthma like symptoms and were diagnosed with interstitial lung disease, which responded to discontinuation of sirolimus. Pediatricians should be aware about the pulmonary side effects of sirolimus.
