Pharmaceutical care for a patient with visual abnormalities induced by oxaliplatin by clinical pharmacists
To report a case of visual abnormalities induced by oxaliplatin, and provide a reference for clinical medication safety.
METHODS
2
Clinical pharmacists conducted the pharmaceutical care for a colon cancer patient who developed visual abnormalities during treatment with oxaliplatin. After the patient experienced two episodes of visual abnormalities in the first chemotherapy cycle, the pharmacists recommended suspending oxaliplatin and reducing its dose in the next cycle. When visual symptoms persisted in the second cycle, they recommended permanent discontinuation of oxaliplatin. Concurrently, they provided medication education to the patient and family. Using Naranjo’s Adverse Drug Reaction Probability Scale, the pharmacists assessed the correlation between oxaliplatin and the visual abnormalities, and analyzed the characteristics of this adverse reaction.
RESULTS &
CONCLUSIONS
2
The physician adopted the clinical pharmacists’ recommendations. After discontinuation of the drug, the patient’s vision gradually returned to normal. The correlation between oxaliplatin and visual abnormalities was assessed as “probable”. Oxaliplatin-induced visual abnormalities are relatively rare and often occur within the first three cycles of treatment. Most patients recover their vision within two weeks after discontinuation, while a small number may progress to permanent visual impairment. Clinical pharmacist ensured the patient’s medication safety by evaluating the correlation between oxaliplatin and visual abnormalities, adjusting medication regimens, providing pharmaceutical care and medication education, and providing other pharmaceutical services.
