Voriconazole-induced severe skin allergy and neurological adverse event in a liver failure patient: A case report

Severe allergy and neurological adverse events were appeared on the 19th day, which was the next day after voriconazole injection.

VCZ: voriconazole, 0.4 g on the 18th day, followed by 0.2 g once daily, ALP: alprazolam, 0.2 g, per night, PT: piperacillin-tazobactam, 2.5 g every 12 h, IC: Imipenem cilastatin, 0.5 g every 8 hours, ENT: entecavir, 0.5 mg once daily, ADE: ademetionine, 0.25 g once daily, VAN: Vancomycin, 1 g every 12 h.


Abstract

What Is Known and Objective

Triazole antifungal-associated severe skin allergy has received little attention. Here we report a case of an acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) patient with diffused skin allergy pervading from the chest, abdomen, back, knees to perineum, with red colour and partially desquamation as well as a neurological adverse (insomnia) event after voriconazole treatment.

Case Summary

A 40-year-old man with liver failure in our hospital had received voriconazole for invasive fungal infection therapy, and while waiting for liver transplantation exhibited a severe diffuse rash and a neurological adverse event.

What Is New and Conclusion

To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of a liver failure patient who suffered a severe allergy accompanied with a neurological adverse event after voriconazole administration.
