DOI: 10.1111/tid.12968
Abstract: Dapsone may be used for Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) prophylaxis in hematology patients receiving immunosuppressive therapy or after hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) in the setting of trimethoprim‐sulfamethoxazole (TMP‐SMX) adverse drug reaction (ADR) history. Dapsone‐induced… read more here.
