This case report describes a pediatric patient requiring enteral tube
treatment with isavuconazole for an invasive fungal infection
post-hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Previously reported
literature in adult patients support this administration technique,
however, no literature specific to pediatric patients exists. This brief
report will examine subsequent trough concentrations of enteral tube
administration of isavuconazole capsules for a pediatric patient being
treated with a concomitant interacting medication.
