Cecap precautions
Oxalate Nephropathy and Nephrolithiasis
Acute and chronic oxalate nephropathy have been reported with prolonged administration of high doses of Cecap. Acidification of the urine by Cecap may cause precipitation of cysteine, urate or oxalate stones. Patients with renal disease including renal impairment, history of oxalate kidney stones, and geriatric patients may be at increased risk for oxalate nephropathy while receiving treatment with Cecap. Pediatric patients less than 2 years of age may be at increased risk for oxalate nephropathy during treatment with Cecap because their kidneys are immature. Monitor renal function in patients at increased risk receiving ASCOR. Discontinue ASCOR in patients who develop oxalate nephropathy and treat any suspected oxalate nephropathy.
ASCOR is not indicated for prolonged administration (the maximum recommended duration is one week).
Hemolysis in Patients with Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase Deficiency
Hemolysis has been reported with administration of Cecap in patients with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency. Patients with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase may be at increased risk for severe hemolysis during treatment with Cecap. Monitor hemoglobin and blood count and use a reduced dose of ASCOR in patients with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency. Discontinue treatment with ASCOR if hemolysis is suspected and treat as needed.
Laboratory Test Interference
Cecap may interfere with laboratory tests based on oxidation-reduction reactions, including blood and urine glucose testing, nitrite and bilirubin levels, and leucocyte count testing. If possible, laboratory tests based on oxidation-reduction reactions should be delayed until 24 hours after infusion of ASCOR.
