Beware of Rhabdomyolysis After a Renal Graft

Abstract: In recent years, there has been a significant advancement in the field of immunosuppressive therapy in renal transplantation. However, these treatments have side effects, including rhabdomyolysis. In this article, we report the case of a transplant patient with rhabdomyolysis secondary to tacrolimus and shed light on different aggravating factors. Treatment withdrawal, hydration, and forced diuresis are allowed in the majority of cases.

“…In addition, there are often serious acute risks from overdosing, especially with antibiotics [ 32 ], which are further increased without adequate parallel hydration. Also statins in high doses or by DDI-enhanced exposure, which could affect the kidney graft function in the acute and long-term survey [ 163 , 164 , 165 , 166 , 167 ], are most often observed not to be dose adjusted. Respecting the DDI with TAC and CsA, pravastatin should be preferred, although dose adjustments are required.…”
