Contemporary considerations for nephrotoxin stewardship: Estimating kidney function and use of novel biomarkers

open access: yesJACCP: JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN COLLEGE OF CLINICAL PHARMACY, Volume 7, Issue 8, Page 832-844, August 2024.
Abstract Drug‐associated acute kidney injury (D‐AKI) constitutes approximately 19%–26% of all acute kidney injury (AKI) cases in hospitalized patients. Notably, there is often a deficiency in optimal drug management after D‐AKI diagnosis, with only about half of the patients experiencing discontinuation of nephrotoxins and one‐fifth avoiding further ...
