Impact of thrice-weekly cotrimoxazole prophylaxis on creatinine and potassium plasma levels in kidney transplant recipients.

Our study pinpoints the impact of CTX 800/160 thrice-weekly on creatinine and potassium levels in kidney transplant recipients. This should be considered when interpreting the evolution of plasma creatinine over time, especially in patients with graft dysfunction. Thus, creatinine levels of cohorts with 6 months versus lifelong CTX require different interpretations.
