Antineoplastic therapy can be associated with drug-induced lung toxicity. With the increasing use of amiodarone for cardiac dysrhythmias there is an increasing possibility of its combined use with chemotherapies for various malignancies. We report a patient on long-term amiodarone who developed biopsy-proven drug-induced lung toxicity after receiving high-dose cyclophosphamide, at a time-frame much shorter than would have been predicted with cyclophosphamide alone. The potential for enhanced lung toxicity secondary to combination of amiodarone and cyclophosphamide is discussed.
