Use of different strategy for voriconazole dosage adjustment

Patients will be randomly assigned into 2 groups: conventional adjustment group (CA group) and early adjustment group (EA group). Voriconazole plasma levels will be measured on day 1 (both peak and trough levels), day 3, day 5, day 10, and day 14 (all trough levels). For CA group patients, voriconazole dosage will be adjusted according to the trough levels of day 5 (steady-state level). Predefined dose adjustment protocol will be used (\< 1 µg/ml: 50% increase, 1\~5.5 µg/ml: no change, \> 5.5 µg/ml: 50% decrease). For EA group patients, voriconazole dosage will be adjusted according to the each measurements of voriconazole levels from day 1. Adjusted dosage will be calculated using the NONMEN software.
