Daptomycin-Induced Eosinophilic Pneumonia Treated With Intravenous Corticosteroids
Conclusion:
Since this potentially life-threatening adverse effect of daptomycin appears more common than previously reported, clinicians should have a high level of suspicion in any patient with recent daptomycin exposure who presents with pulmonary symptoms. In many cases, this process is highly responsive to prompt initiation of corticosteroid therapy. (Source: Journal of Pharmacy Practice)

Correlates and Economic and Clinical Outcomes of an Adult IV to PO Antimicrobial Conversion Program at an Academic Medical Center in Midwest United States
The study objectives were to evaluate the correlates and outcomes of a parenteral (IV) to oral (PO) antimicrobial conversion program at a Midwest US Academic Medical Center with the hypothesis that it will be associated with reduced drug costs. Patient-level data (n = 237; sex, race, admission source, admission status, admission severity, risk of mortality [relative expected, admission], and early death) were extracted from the Clinical Data Base/Resource Manager. Medication-level, drug-encounter data (n = 317; antibiotic/dose/route/frequency/duration, conversion status, 10-day IV/PO switch-eligibility criteria) were extra...
