Management of Cyclosporine-Influenced Gingival Enlargement With Azithromycin
© 2020 American Academy of Periodontology..
INTRODUCTION: Management of drug-influenced gingival enlargement is challenging, and surgery is most often indicated. However, because of a unique mechanism of action, azithromycin helps in the management of gingival enlargement caused by cyclosporine. An incidental observation of the effect of azithromycin in the cyclosporine-influenced gingival enlargement by physicians in 1995 led to series of basic investigations and clinical trials confirming this observation and providing a non-surgical treatment modality.
CASE PRESENTATION: In this report, successful management of cyclosporine-influenced gingival enlargement in a 39-year-old renal transplant patient with the use of azithromycin without any surgical intervention is presented.
CONCLUSION: Use of azithromycin for managing cyclosporine-influenced gingival enlargement is a useful alternative or adjunct to surgical management. It is hoped that this report will raise further awareness of this non-surgical modality in patients taking cyclosporine.
