Protease inhibitors (PIs) inhibit the cytochrome P450 CYP3A4. Because the metabolism of pravastatin is independent of the cytochrome P450 CYP3A4, this drug has become the preferred statin for treatment of dyslipidemia associated with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, with no cases of

The prolonged administration of epsilon-aminocaproic acid (EACA) resulted in the development of severe proximal myopathy associated with high plasma creatine kinase values, rhabdomyolysis, myoglobinuria, and mild hyperbilirubinaemia. Withdrawal of the drug led to spontaneous resolution of the

We report a case of crush syndrome (rhabdomyolysis) resulting from the prolonged compression of the inadvertently inflated blood pressure cuff around her upper arm. A 61-yr-old woman had undergone total gastrectomy, splenectomy and cholecystectomy for gastric cancer. At the end of the surgery
