BACKGROUND: Improper prescriptions can cause adverse reactions in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Hospital pharmacists investigated improper prescriptions, prerenal acute kidney injury (AKI) prescriptions, and adverse effects in AKI in 199 CKD patients at Kouseikai Hospital from July 2020 to June 2021, as well as combinations of "triple whammy" drugs (renin-angiotensin-system inhibitors, diuretics, and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) plus active vitamin D preparations. All participants (average age, 73.6 ± 16.2 years) were residents of Nagasaki City or its suburbs.
RESULTS: Adverse reactions occurred in 38 of the 199 patients (19.1%). 13 patients had AKI, and 9 of these cases developed during the summer. A comparison of the 38 patients in the adverse reaction group and the 161 patients in the non-occurrence group showed that the former group was significantly older and had a lower body weight. In terms of renal function, estimated glomerular filtration rate (mL/min/1.73m2) was significantly lower, blood urea nitrogen/serum creatinine (BUN/S-Cr) was higher, dehydration was involved, and active vitamin D preparations were significantly more common in the adverse reaction group.
CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest that concomitant prescription of active vitamin D in combination with the drugs that constitute the triple whammy should be avoided. The absence of hypercalcemia should be confirmed and adequate fluid intake should be encouraged to prevent prerenal nephropathy.
