omeprazole acute renal failure

Acute interstitial nephritis (AIN) is characterized by an inflammatory infiltrate of the interstitium of the kidney, typically causing a decline in kidney function. Drug-induced AIN (also called allergic AIN) is a type of AIN. Common drugs associated with AIN are antibiotics, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), and proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). A 59-year-old male with a history of recent laparoscopic robotic sleeve gastrectomy presented to the emergency department with five weeks of progressively worsening fatigue, nausea, and lightheadedness...

OBJECTIVE: A 43 year old male with history of hypertension, non-adherence to medications, heavy smoking (since age 8) and alcohol abuse was admitted with epigastric pain, heartburn and upper GI bleeding (hematochezia) for which he had been recently taking PPI. On arrival his BP was 182/100 mmHg, HR-89, decreased breath sounds + wheezes. DESIGN AND METHOD: Hemoglobin was 7.4 mg/dL, Creatinine 11.2 mg/dl (recent baseline 1.1 mg/dl) Urea- 200 mg/dl.He soon after needed HD which he continues a thrice weekly basis...

INTRODUCTION: Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are widely prescribed and generally well tolerated but can rarely cause severe allergic reactions, such as drug rash with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS). We report a case of DRESS and renal injury induced by PPIs, and describe the therapeutic process. PATIENT CONCERNS: The patient was a 66-year-old female who complained of fever, pruritus, desquamation, erythema multiforme, and anuria caused by omeprazole taken for 2 weeks to treat abdominal distention...

RATIONALE, AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: In recent years, the use of proton pump inhibitors (PPI), especially omeprazole, has been associated with development of chronic kidney disease (CKD). These drugs are widely used worldwide. Although some studies have found an association between the use of PPI and the onset of acute renal failure and CKD. This study aims to analyze the association between the continuous use of omeprazole and the progression of CKD in adult and elderly individuals. METHOD: A retrospective cohort study was conducted with patients followed up at a nephrology clinic in Brazil, in 2016 and 2017...

Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are among the most frequent implicated drugs in acute tubulointerstitial nephritis (ATIN), nevertheless it is important to report cases with atypical profiles. A 80-year-old female, exposed during 34 months to omeprazole, presented with polyclonal hypergammaglobulinaemia and renal failure. After stopping omeprazole there was a partial improvement in serum creatinine and IgG. Renal biopsy revealed ATIN; immunohistochemistry for IgG4 was negative. Treatment with steroids and mycophenolate sodium improved renal function and normalized immunoglobulins...

A 74-year-old female patient was admitted to hospital following a road accident with pains in the chest, abdomen, waist, back, nose, left wrist and lower limbs. After 1 week, the patient presented with gastrointestinal bleeding, and thus was treated with protein pump inhibitors (PPIs), including lansoprazole, esomeprazole and omeprazole enteric-coated tablets, in order to inhibit acid secretion and attenuate bleeding. However, the patient developed skin rashes on the chest and right lower limb and foot 28 days following treatment initiation...

AIM: To assess the appropriateness of prescribing acid suppressive therapy (AST) in a general medicine service in a tertiary care hospital. METHODS: In this retrospective observational study, we reviewed the inpatient records of all patients admitted to the general medical service in a tertiary care hospital in Beirut, Lebanon, from April 1 to May 31, 2011. Treatment with AST was considered appropriate if the patient had a specific indication or appropriate treatment purpose [e...

We report a case of methotrexate toxicity potentially induced by a drug interaction between methotrexate and omeprazole in a 25-year-old man with osteosarcoma. The patient was placed on omeprazole after his first cycle of high-dose methotrexate for stress ulcer prophylaxis, and it was discontinued before the start of the first day of the patient's second round of high-dose methotrexate. The 24-hour methotrexate level was elevated and he continued to have sustained levels for 18 days. Side effects due to elevated serum methotrexate included seizures, mucositis, acute renal failure, and thrombocytopenia...

Three patients were diagnosed with drug-induced tubulointerstitial nephritis: a 72-year-old woman who was using a proton pump inhibitor, an 83-year-old woman who had recently been treated with antibiotics and an 83-year-old man who was using omeprazole. Discontinuation of the medications in question and the initiation of glucocorticoids resulted in improved renal function. In two of these patients, the diagnosis was established by renal biopsy. Acute tubulointerstitial nephritis is an important cause of renal insufficiency...

OBJECTIVE: To report a case of probable trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole (TMP/SMX)-induced higher-level gait disorder (HLGD) and nocturnal delirium in an elderly patient on high-dose oral therapy. CASE SUMMARY: An 82-year-old man with a recent history of depression became comatose following an overdose of escitalopram and oxazepam. He was admitted, ventilated for 7 days in the intensive care unit, and treated with piperacillin/tazobactam and cefepime for aspiration pneumonia...

BACKGROUND: As described in the literature, gabapentin toxicity in patients with impaired renal function can manifest as coma, myoclonus, tremulousness, or altered mental status. Gabapentin is an antiepileptic agent indicated for use as an adjunct therapy in partial seizures and postherpetic neuralgia but is also prescribed for the treatment of diabetic peripheral neuropathy. CASE SUMMARY: A 46-year-old white woman (height, 167 cm; weight, 177 kg; body mass index, 62...

It has been reported that omeprazole is mainly metabolized via hepatic cytochrome P450 (CYP) 1A1/2, CYP2D1 and CYP3A1/2 in male Sprague-Dawley rats, and the expression of hepatic CYP3A1 is increased in male Sprague-Dawley rats with acute renal failure induced by uranyl nitrate (U-ARF rats). Thus, the metabolism of omeprazole would be expected to increase in U-ARF rats. After intravenous administration of omeprazole (20 mgkg(-1)) to U-ARF rats, the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity (AUC) was significantly reduced (371 vs 494 microg min mL(-1)), possibly due to the significantly faster non-renal clearance (56...

AIM: To investigate the association between the use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and acute interstitial nephritis (AIN). METHODS: The Netherlands Pharmacovigilance Centre Lareb received seven case reports of AIN induced by various PPIs. In five of the reports it was mentioned that the diagnosis was confirmed by a renal biopsy. RESULTS: The time to onset varied between hours to 4 months. In all cases but one the patient spontaneously recovered after withdrawal of the offending agent...

AIM: Although proton pump inhibitors (PPI) are usually safe and effective therapeutic agents, serious adverse effects can occur. The aim of the present study was to report and analyse the clinical features of 15 patients with acute interstitial nephritis (AIN) and acute renal failure from PPI that were referred to renal services in Auckland over a period of 3 years. METHODS: The clinical presentation, therapeutic drugs, demographic details and renal outcome of the patients were considered...

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are a widely prescribed class of drugs, and their usage worldwide is increasing. Although well-tolerated, there have been case reports and a recent case series implicating these drugs in acute interstitial nephritis (AIN) and progression to acute renal failure (ARF). The aim of this study was to investigate how widespread this complication is in Australia, to identify which PPIs are implicated, and to establish whether PPI-induced AIN is a class effect...

OBJECTIVE: To report a case of neurotoxicity related to antiviral drugs, discuss the involvement of concomitant medications, and document the pharmacokinetics of ganciclovir (administered as valganciclovir) in a child with impaired renal function. CASE SUMMARY: A 13-year-old boy with acute lymphoblastic leukemia was treated for cytomegalovirus retinitis with valganciclovir 450 mg every 2 days in the course of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Concomitant medication included omeprazole, furosemide, and acetaminophen...

Acute interstitial nephritis is an uncommon but important cause of acute renal failure. Proton pump inhibitors are now thought to be the most common class of drugs implicated in drug-induced acute interstitial nephritis. This is the first reported case of rabeprazole-induced acute interstitial nephritis.

Pantoprazole is a proton-pump inhibitor (PPI) that is commonly prescribed for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux-related disorders. There are many documented side effects of PPIs. Here we report a case of acute interstitial nephritis, which developed after 6 weeks of treatment with pantoprazole. A 23-year-old man presented with acute renal failure requiring renal replacement therapy. Acute interstitial nephritis was diagnosed by renal biopsy and was successfully treated with corticosteroids and withdrawal of pantoprazole...

From 1 to 3% of acute renal failures are due to acute interstitial nephritis (AIN). Most of them are due to drugs. Nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs, penicillins and sulfonamides are the most frequently reported. Clinical presentation of drug-induced AIN has changed over time and with the use of new drugs. In fact actually the classic triad of fever, rash and eosinophilia is uncommon. Omeprazole is a drug widely used in the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease and peptic ulcer disease. Serious side effects are rare with this drug, but despite of its safety we can see serious adverse effects such as acute renal failure...

No comparative epidemiological data can be found in the literature on the renal safety of acid-suppressing drugs. We followed-up a cohort of close to 180,000 persons during periods of treatment and non-treatment with five anti-ulcer drugs to evaluate the risk of idiopathic acute renal failure and/or nephrotic syndrome. After reviewing medical records, five patients were found to be cases. Two presented with acute renal failure and three had nephrotic syndrome. Three cases occurred during periods of non-exposure to anti-ulcer drugs...
