Abstract

Delayed methotrexate (MTX) elimination occurred in two patients with primary central nervous system lymphoma undergoing high-dose MTX treatment. Oral administration of the anion exchange resin colestimide, which binds MTX effectively in vitro, effectively accelerated MTX elimination. Colestimide probably interrupts the enterohepatic circulation, and is a potential oral antidote to MTX toxicity.
