A Case of Acute Kidney Injury with Vancomycin and Piperacillin/Tazobactam
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Acute kidney injury can result from a multitude of factors, including drug-induced causes. Medications like vancomycin and piperacillin/tazobactam have shown to be correlated with deterioration of the kidneys when used in excess or concomitantly with other potential offending agents [1,2]. While these agents have been both been associated with potential nephrotoxcity there is limited data on the exact mechanisms and roles in potential kidney injury. Further, no patient case reports describing kidney injury with concomitant use of vancomycin and pipercillin/ tazobactam is found in current literature that describes the series of events leading to acute kidney injury.

The Nephrotoxicity of Vancomycin
Vancomycin use is often associated with nephrotoxicity. It remains uncertain, however, to what extent vancomycin is directly responsible, as numerous potential risk factors for acute kidney injury frequently coexist. Herein, we critically examine available data in adult patients pertinent to this question. We review the pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics of vancomycin metabolism. Efficacy and sa...
