Abstract
Direct tubular damage, hypersensitivity reaction, metabolically mediated kidney disturbances, and chronic nephropathies are important sequelae of several drugs or their metabolites. In this review the drug-induced kidney disease is discussed from a clinical, histological, and pathogenetic point of view. The knowledge of possible nephrotoxic reactions and their underlying toxins are essential for prevention of this kidney disease.
