Nephrotoxicity of Ciprofloxacin: Five Cases and a Review of the Literature.
Drug Safety - Case Reports 2018 April 19
Fluoroquinolones are usually well tolerated with a minimum of serious adverse effects; renal toxicity is uncommon. Apart from the renal side effects of ciprofloxacin, we aimed to highlight the renal impact of a ciprofloxacin overdose, and thus conducted a prospective study in the Department of Nephrology at La Rabta Hospital between 2010 and 2015. The cohort database was continually updated until the inclusion of five patients who were subjected to an overdose and who were initially admitted to the medical intensive care unit and then transferred to our department for acute renal failure (ARF) due to ciprofloxacin ingestion requiring urgent hemodialysis. All patients developed ARF after 12-36 h of ingestion. Renal ultrasound was normal in all cases. Twenty-four-hour proteinuria was present but not significant in one case, while microscopic hematuria was present in one case. Treatment consisted of supportive therapy and extrarenal purification by conventional intermittent hemodialysis. Four patients recovered normal renal function within 3 weeks and the remaining patient eventually had chronic kidney failure.
