1/ Follow up for our #IDFellows and #IDTwitter on an #IDCase - 25 year old female with behcet's disease and chronic pain who presents for positive T Spot done for screening. Started on Rifampin for latent TB Infection. She calls 3 days later with diffuse pain.
2/ Great job, #IDTwitter, honing in on the issue! This was intentionally vague to stimulate discussion. As you alluded to, the key lies in what else she was taking. But first, what might we worry about as adverse effects Rifampin?
3/ Allergic reactions to rifampin are relatively rare though they have been described. However, patients may experience flushing, rash and itching that is unrelated to hypersensitivity. Rifampin can often be continued in these patients. PMID: 10575418
