Abstract

Several drugs commonly used in the management of rheumatic diseases may lead to nephrotoxicity, electrolyte disturbances, and hypertension. Here the authors focus on nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs, uric-acid-lowering therapy, and commonly used immunosuppressant therapies. The authors include a drug dosing table for patients with kidney disease.
