RESUMO
A 36-year-old woman with prior hypertriglyceridemia-induced pancreatitis presented with a recurrence of pancreatitis after beginning in vitro fertilization (IVF). Her primary care physician had discontinued fenofibrate due to concerns for teratogenicity. This case illustrates the importance of fibrate therapy for high-risk women undergoing IVF, despite limited evidence regarding its teratogenicity.
RESUMO
A 29-year-old woman was hospitalized for fever, pharyngitis, and severe neutropenia after recent use of doxycycline and other antimicrobials. Three years later, she again presented with severe neutropenia after recent doxycycline use. Diagnostic workups were unyielding. This is only the second published case of severe neutropenia associated with doxycycline use.
