Gemcitabine-induced respiratory failure associated with elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) [PDF]
Respiratory Medicine, 2006 Gemcitabine is a newer pyrimidine analog used for the treatment of solid tumors. Though generally considered safe, it can cause pulmonary toxicity, which is generally mild and reversible. The purpose of this publication is to document a case of adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) caused by Gemcitabine administration.
