Cidofovir nephrotoxicity, prevention

Cidofovir nephrotoxicity, prevention: Limited data available; various regimens have been reported:

Infants, Children, and Adolescents: Note: The manufacturer's labeling considers use in patients <2 years of age to be contraindicated; however, clinical studies have included younger ages (including infants) for this indication. Use in combination with IV fluid hydration.

Weight-directed dosing: Oral: 25 to 40 mg/kg/dose (maximum dose: 2,000 mg/dose) administered 3 hours before cidofovir infusion and 10 to 20 mg/kg/dose (maximum dose: 1,000 mg/dose) at 2 to 3 hours and 8 to 9 hours after cidofovir infusion (Ref).

BSA-directed dosing: Oral: 1,000 or 1,250 mg/m2/dose (maximum dose: 2,000 mg/dose) administered 3 hours prior to cidofovir, followed by 500 to 1,250 mg/m2/dose (maximum dose: 1,000 mg/dose) 1 to 3 hours and 8 hours after completion (Ref).

Dosing: Kidney Impairment: Pediatric

There are no dosage adjustments provided in the manufacturer's labeling.

Dosing: Adult

(For additional information see "Probenecid: Drug information")

Altered kidney function

eGFR ≥60 mL/minute/1.73 m2: No dosage adjustment necessary (Ref).

eGFR <60 mL/minute/1.73 m2:

Cidofovir nephrotoxicity, prevention (off-label use):

Oral: No dosage adjustment of probenecid likely necessary (Ref). Note: The use and dose of cidofovir in patients with kidney dysfunction should be evaluated separately.

Hyperuricemia, gout prevention: Oral:

eGFR ≥30 to <60 mL/minute/1.73 m2: The use of alternative agents is recommended due to reduced efficacy of probenecid in patients with eGFR <60 mL/minute/1.73 m2 (Ref). If use of probenecid is deemed appropriate, no dosage adjustment likely necessary; however, use with caution and frequent monitoring for safety and efficacy. Limited data demonstrate urate-lowering capability of probenecid in patients with eGFR 30 to 60 mL/minute/1.73 m2 without increased risk of toxicity; however, robust evidence is lacking, and better alternatives are often available (Ref).

eGFR <30 mL/minute/1.73 m2: Use not recommended (Ref).

Sexually transmitted infections, as a pharmacokinetic enhancer to prolong beta-lactam serum levels: Oral:

Note: No dosage adjustment is necessary for single dose probenecid regimens (ie, used in combination with cefoxitin for gonococcal infection or pelvic inflammatory disease) (Ref).

eGFR <60 mL/minute/1.73 m2: Since probenecid may have limited efficacy in reducing the renal clearance of beta-lactam concentrations (ie, procaine penicillin) in patients with kidney impairment, the use of probenecid in combination with procaine penicillin for the treatment of neurosyphilis should be avoided (Ref).

Hemodialysis, intermittent (thrice weekly): Oral: Avoid use (Ref).

Peritoneal dialysis: Oral: Avoid use (Ref).

CRRT: Oral: Avoid use (Ref).

PIRRT (eg, sustained, low-efficiency diafiltration): Oral: Avoid use (Ref).

Dosing: Liver Impairment: Adult

There are no dosage adjustments provided in the manufacturer's labeling.

Propacetamol: Probenecid may increase active metabolite exposure of Propacetamol. Specifically, accetaminophen exposure may be increased. Probenecid may also limit the formation of at least one major non-toxic acetaminophen metabolite, possibly increasing the formation of the toxic NAPQI metabolite. Management: Consider limiting the use of propacetamide in patients who are also taking probenecid. Patients may be at an increased risk for toxicity, even if reduced propacetamide doses are used. Risk D: Consider Therapy Modification

Competitively inhibits the reabsorption of uric acid at the proximal convoluted tubule, thereby promoting its excretion and reducing serum uric acid levels; increases plasma levels of weak organic acids (penicillins, cephalosporins, or other beta-lactam antibiotics) by competitively inhibiting their renal tubular secretion

Pharmacokinetics (Adult Data Unless Noted)

Onset of action: Effect on penicillin levels: 2 hours; Uric acid renal clearance: 30 minutes

Absorption: Rapid and complete

Protein binding: 85% to 95%

Metabolism: Hepatic

Half-life elimination (dose dependent): Normal renal function: 6 to 12 hours

Time to peak, serum: 2 to 4 hours

Excretion: Urine
