Alternative pneumocystis prophylaxis in solid organ transplant recipients at two large transplant centers.

Use of APAs for PJP prophylaxis after SOT is less than previously reported but often unwarranted. Such decisions require scrutiny to avoid TMP-SMX-preventable OIs, cost and important APA side effects. Use of reasonable thresholds for cessation of TMP-SMX and data-driven approaches to re-challenge would substantially reduce APA use.
