Subjectb | Adverse event(s)c | AE onset study day | Period | AUC0-12 (μg·h/ml) | Cmax (μg/ml) | Cmin (μg/ml) |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
34 (8, F, 45.2) | Hypoxia | 10 | IV | 162 | 14.9 | 10.9 |
39 (2, F, 12.8) | None | IV | 145 | 15.4 | 9.39 | |
32 (5, M, 15.9) | Increased ALT and AST | 7 | IV | 81.4 | 9.70 | 4.59 |
33 (4, M, 14.2) | Increased ALT and ASTd | 11 (day 5 of oral treatment) | Oral | 203 | 18.0 | 12.8 |
39 (2, F, 12.8) | None | Oral | 179 | 18.0 | 11.9 | |
3 (2, M, 10.9) | None | Oral | 158 | 14.6 | 8.41 | |

Each subject received voriconazole at 7 mg/kg IV q12h followed by 200 mg PO q12h.
Data are age (years), sex, and weight (kilograms). All children were classified by CYP2C19 genotype as HEMs.
IV, intravenous, ALT, alanine aminotransferase, AST, aspartate aminotransferase.
These events resolved on day 10 oral without any alteration of study drug treatment.
