Severe acute hypokalaemia associated with piperacillin/tazobactam in an HIV-infected patient under antiretroviral therapy with tenofovir alafenamide: case report and literature review.
Piperacillin/tazobactam is a commonly prescribed antimicrobial agent. Tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) is increasingly being used in antiretroviral therapy (ART) of HIV. Herein we report a case of a 57-year-old male with AIDS receiving TAF-containing ART in whom severe refractory hypokalaemia developed after coadministration of piperacillin/tazobactam for suspected hospital-acquired infection. Upon withdrawal of piperacillin/tazobactam, serum potassium concentrations returned to normal within 2 days. Hypokalaemia is a rare adverse effect of piperacillin/tazobactam and may be aggravated with the underlying use of TAF. We also reviewed past reported cases of hypokalaemia after piperacillin/tazobactam administration. We want to highlight that a more cautious approach should be considered when combining piperacillin/tazobactam and TAF in clinical practice.

Renal proximal tubulopathy in an HIV-infected patient treated with tenofovir alafenamide and gentamicin: a case report.
The nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitor Tenofovir Alafenamide (TAF) is a novel pro-drug of tenofovir (TFV) and possesses a superior renal safety profile compared with tenofovir disoproxil fumerate (TDF). Due to unique pharmacokinetic characteristics, treatment with TAF is not associated with significant renal proximal tubular accumulation of TFV. TAF is associated with a lower risk of acute kidney injury, chronic kidney disease, proteinuria and renal proximal tubular dysfunction than treatment with TDF. No cases of Fanconi syndrome have been reported in clinical trials of TAF. It is unknown whether treatment with TAF can lead to accumulation of TFV in proximal tubular cells and cause nephrotoxicity under certain clinical circumstances.. Here we report the case of a patient on stable TAF-based antiretroviral therapy with for HIV-1 infection who developed proximal tubulopathy when treated with gentamicin for febrile neutropenia in the context of relapsed Hodgkin lymphoma. Eighteen days after commencing chemotherapy for relapsed Hodgkin lymphoma the patient presented to hospital with fevers, hypotension and neutropenia. The patient was commenced on piperacillin, tazobactam and gentamicin. Within 24 h the patient developed marked hypokalaemia and hypophosphataemia requiring intravenous replacement therapy. There was proteinuria, glycosuria and evidence of marked urinary electrolyte wasting, consistent with acute proximal tubular dysfunction. Eleven days after the gentamicin was stopped the serum biochemistry normalised. The urinary electrolyte wasting and proteinuria had improved, and the glycosuria had resolved.. This is the first case report to describe acute renal proximal tubulopathy in an HIV-infected patient treated with TAF and gentamicin. As the number of patients prescribed TAF outside the clinical trial setting increases, so too does the potential for previously unreported drug interactions and adverse events. Clinicians need to be aware of potential unreported adverse drug reactions as the use of TAF becomes increasingly common in clinical practice.

A case of entecavir-induced Fanconi syndrome.
Acquired Fanconi syndrome has been associated with the long-term ingestion of several nucleoside analogs used to treat chronic hepatitis B virus infection. However, the nucleoside analog entecavir has not been found to cause nephrotoxicity. We report a case of entecavir-induced Fanconi syndrome. Our patient was a 73-year-old man admitted to our hospital because of renal dysfunction. He also presented with hyperaminoaciduria, renal diabetes, phosphaturia, hypophosphatemia, hypokalemia, hypouricemia, and hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis, supporting a diagnosis of Fanconi syndrome. In this case, the cause of Fanconi syndrome was most likely entecavir, which had been administered as needed depending on his renal function for 5 years. After drug discontinuation and replacement with tenofovir alafenamide fumarate therapy once a week, the patient's kidney function recovered and electrolyte anomalies partially improved. We highlight the fact that entecavir may induce severe renal dysfunction, which can cause the development of Fanconi syndrome; therefore, close monitoring of proximal tubular function is recommended during entecavir therapy.
