Hepatische Transaminasen, Bilirubinwerte zu Beginn und regelmässig in den ersten drei Monaten und danach periodisch kontrollieren. Falls trotz symptomatischer Therapie von Diarrhö, Übelkeit, Erbrechen keine Besserung eintritt oder bei Transaminasenanstieg auf das 3-fache der Obergrenze des Normbereiches, sollte die Dosis auf 100 mg 2x pro Tag reduziert oder die Behandlung abgebrochen werden.

Journal Information Aims and Scope Respiration brings together the results of both clinical and experimental investigations on all aspects of the respiratory system in health and disease. Clinical improvements in the diag- nosis and treatment of chest and lung diseases are covered, as are the latest findings in physiology, biochemistry, pathology, immunology and pharmacology. The journal includes classic features such as editorials that accompany original articles in clinical and basic science Guidelines for Authors research, reviews and letters to the editor. Further sections are: The Eye Catcher, What’s Your We strongly encourage authors to read the Guidelines for Authors at Diagnosis?, New Insights from Clinical Practice, and Guidelines. www.karger.com/res_guidelines prior to Respiration is the official journal of the Swiss Respiratory Society (SGP) and also home to the submitting an article. European Association for Bronchology and Interventional Pulmonology (EABIP), which oc- cupies a dedicated section on Interventional Pulmonology in the journal. This modern mix of different features and a stringent peer-review process by a dedicated editorial board make Respiration a complete guide to progress in thoracic medicine.
