Precautions / Contraindications/High Risk Patients - Glycopeptides & Lipoglycopeptides (Vancomycin, dalbavancin, oritavancin ,telavancin) • Use of glycopeptides and lipoglycopeptides during pregnancy is not reco mmended, but sometimes the benefits of treatment may outweigh the risks. For example, vancomycin taken by mouth may be used to treat C. difficile –induced diarrhea in pregnant women • Patients with history of antibiotic associated diarrhea must be cautious ab out using Vancomycin. Discuss with your doctor regarding your history of the same. • Patients with history of opportunistic infections must be cautious about using Vancomycin. Discuss with your doctor regarding your history of the same. • Patients with history of diminished hearing and ototoxicity are at increased risk for hearing loss with Vancomycin. Discuss with your doctor regarding safety with Vancomycin use. 3 • Vancomycin is not metabolized and is excreted unchanged in the urine. Individuals with compromised renal functions tend to retain the drug in the circulation longer, thus resulting in toxicity. Vancomycin should be avoided or used with extreme caution in such individuals. • Individuals with history of seizures and hallucinations can present with exacerba tion of these symptoms with Vancomycin. Vancomycin should be avoided or used with extreme caution in individuals with seizure history. • Vancomycin should be avoided or used cautiously in individuals with history of cardiac arrhythmias, as it has the potenti al to induce life -threatening cardiac arrest. Individuals with history of chronic disturbance in serum magnesium and potassium ions are at increased risk for arrhythmias. Also, individuals taking Lasix are at increased risk for losing potassium, thus setti ng the ground for life -threatening arrhythmias with Vancomycin. • Vancomycin intake can increase the risk for skin rash, ranging from mild to severe exfoliating rash, easy bleeding, bruising, and blister formation. Individuals with history of extreme skin ra shes and taking Vancomycin should be aware of this response and observe a close watch on the same. High Risk Patients Telavancin has a boxed warning highlighting the increased mortality in patients with preexisting kidney dysfunction (creatinine clearance 50 mL/min or less). Precautions / Contraindications/High Risk Patients - Macrolides (Erythromycin and azithromycin ) ‘mycin Concomitant administration of macrolides with astemizole, cisapride, pimozide, or terfenadine is contraindicated because potentially fatal cardiac arrhythmias (eg, QT prolongation, ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, torsades de p ointes ) may occur when clarithromycin or erythromycin is given with these drugs. High Risk Patients • liver disease; • kidney disease; • myasthenia gravis; • a heart rhythm disorder; • low levels of potassium in your blood; or • long QT syndrome (in you or a family me mber). Precautions / Contraindications/High Risk Patients - Monobactams (aztreonam) Aztreonam for injection should be halved in patients with estimated creatinine clearances between 10 and 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 after an initial loading dose of 1 or 2 g. - Oxazolidinones (linezolid & tedizolid) ‘ zolid Precautions / Contraindications -
