Safety study and therapeutic drug monitoring of the oral tablet formulation of posaconazole in patients with haematological malignancies.

Posaconazole was well tolerated; however, LFT abnormalities were frequent. ADR occurrence was not linked to posaconazole exposure. Because posaconazole concentrations were highly variable, TDM can be helpful to avoid underexposure to the drug and increase its efficacy in preventing IFI. Conversely, a large proportion of patients was overexposed and might have benefited of a dose reduction.
