This analysis demonstrates that no correlation exists between whole blood posaconazole levels and hepatotoxicity or QTc prolongation. Based on these results, posaconazole dose reductions may not be warranted for posaconazole levels that are significantly above the therapeutic target to avert risk for hepatotoxicity or QTc prolongation.
