Analgesic nephropathy: etiology, pathophysiology, treatment and management, diagnosis

Emily Jones

Analgesic nephropathy is chronic tubulointerstitial nephritis brought about by persistent utilization of analgesics like acetaminophen, ibuprofen, and Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs). The show can be variable from asymptomatic hematuria, sterile pyuria, or proteinuria, to indicative anemia with features of constant kidney disease or acute urinary tract contamination. Hypertension, iron deficiency, and weakened urinary fixation happen as renal inadequacy creates.
