Prescribing Drugs in Patients With Renal Failure



A 54-year-old man with stage 4 chronic kidney disease presents for review. Which one of the following drugs is it most important to avoid?

A. Erythromycin
B. Diazepam
C. Rifampicin
D. Tetracycline
E. Warfarin

Answer :
D. Tetracycline

Discussion:
Drugs to avoid in renal failure include;
 antibiotics: tetracycline, nitrofurantoin
 NSAIDs
 lithium
 metformin

Drugs likely to accumulate in chronic kidney disease - need dose adjustment
 most antibiotics including penicillins, cephalosporins, vancomycin, gentamicin, streptomycin
 digoxin, atenolol
 methotrexate
 sulphonylureas
 furosemide
 opioids

Drugs relatively safe - can sometimes use normal dose depending on the degree of chronic kidney disease
 antibiotics: erythromycin, rifampicin
 diazepam
 warfarin
