Abstract:

Drug-induced acute interstitial nephritis (DI-AIN) is a common cause of AKI and leading to CKD and ESRD Although any drug can potentially cause DI-AIN, antibiotics, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and proton pump inhibitors are the most common culprits. In the present study, we report a 9-year-old child with drug-induced interstitial nephritis (cefotaxime, vancomycin, and acyclovir). it seems that according to the patient's symptoms, the drug generating DI-AIN cannot be identified. Therefore, physicians should be careful about the occurrence of DI-AIN in children with cefotaxime, vancomycin, and acyclovir.
