Conclusion FKplasm and IPV during induction are higher than in EM and LM. However, patients with CV >30% remain in the maintenance periods between 29.9% and 31.8%, and with values<5 ng/ml between 9.3% and 13.1% which would justify a greater need for pharmacokinetic monitoring and therapeutic control, in order to preserve a longer graft survival and to minimise the events of pharmacological adverse reactions.
to intolerance and three patients (with normal TPMT levels) due to recurrent hepatotoxicity. 30/44 patients tolerated combined therapy. 27/30 patients achieved an optimised TGN: MeMP ratio (<11). Specific ratios included 0 (n=13), 1 (n=9), 2 (n=4), 3 (n=1). 3/30 patients required Allopurinol 100 mg to obtain a ratio <11. Conclusion The majority of patients (90%) obtained an effective TGN:MeMP ratio with reduced Allopurinol dosing at 50 mg. Those that did not achieve this ratio (10%) responded to dose escalation to 100 mg. TPMT status did not appear to influence the effect of low-dose Allopurinol. Hepatotoxicity may still occur with combined Allopurinol and thiopurines therapy. Low-dose Allopurinol may be considered a viable therapeutic strategy providing that appropriate clinical and biochemical surveillance is maintained.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
