UZUN SÜRELİ PİPERASİLİN TAZOBAKTAM TEDAVİSİYLE GÖRÜLEN NÖTROPENİ: İKİ OLGU SUNUMU

Beta-laktam bir antibiyotik olan piperasilin ve piperasilin/tazobaktamın uzun süreli kullanımı, tüm diğer beta- laktamlar gibi kemik iliği süpresyonuna sebep olup nötropeni, trombositopeni veya pansitopeniye yol açabilmektedir. Bu etki kümülatif dozla ilgili olduğundan bu tedaviyi uzun süre alacak olan hastalarda dikkatli olunmalı ve hasta düzenli olarak tam kan sayımıyla kontrol edilmelidir. Bu çalışmada uzun süreli piperasilin/tazobaktam tedavisi almış ve nötropeni gelişmiş iki olgu sunulmuştur.

Development of Neutropenia During Treatment of Long Term Piperacillin/Tazobactam Therapy: Report of Two Cases

Long term use of piperacillin and piperacillin/tazobactam which are beta-lactam antibiotics, may cause bone marrow suppression and lead to neutropenia, thrombocytopenia or pancytopenia. This eff ect is related to the cumulative dose in pati- ents who receive this treatment, care must be taken f or a long term use and whole blood cell counts of patients should be monitored regularly.This paper presents two cases who had long term piperacillin/tazobactam therapy and developed neutropenia.
