ACUTE RENAL FAILURE AFTER USING DEXKETOPROFEN: 3 CASE REPORTS
Journal Title: World Journal of Pharmaceutical and Medical Research - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are widely used all over the world. Acute renal failure (ARF) is a known complication of NSAIDs. Especially in cases of hypovolemia NSAIDs inhibit the enzyme cyclo-oxygenase that regulate the synthesis of prostaglandins from arachidonic acid and it may result vasoconstriction and reversible renal failure. Dexketoprofen is enantiomer of ketoprofen and is a nonspecific NSAID in aryl-proprionic acid group. In this article we present 3 patients with acute renal failure and with history of the use of dexketoprofen.
