pentamidine and Dermatitis Medicamentosa

pentamidine has been researched along with Dermatitis Medicamentosa in 10 studies

Pentamidine: Antiprotozoal agent effective in trypanosomiasis, leishmaniasis, and some fungal infections; used in treatment of PNEUMOCYSTIS pneumonia in HIV-infected patients. It may cause diabetes mellitus, central nervous system damage, and other toxic effects.

" Only 5 of 37 patients started on trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole were able to complete treatment; in 29 patients drug toxicity occurred and in 19 treatment was changed due to adverse reactions that included rash, fever, neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and transaminase elevation."7.67Adverse reactions to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole in patients with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.
