TREATING TB. Keep in mind that Isonaizd(INH) is the established treatment for preventive therapy ‚ and the usual regimen is up to 300mg daily for adults. You can keep pts on for 6 months or 12 months with a positive CXR. Always give vitB6 when treating pts with INH. If there is a suspected resistance then use Rifampin (RIF) alone or in combo with the said INH. How do we treat current CLASSES III & IV diseases. The first line medications are used in combinations since these tend to delay

Acute renal failure (ARF)‚ also know as Acute Kidney Injury/Impairment (AKI) is described as a condition where there is a rapid decline in kidney function which results in an increase in accumulation of waste materials in the body and decreased urine output‚ usually over hours to weeks‚ occurring in a person with or without a previous pre-existing renal disease (Van Biesen‚ W.‚ Vanholder‚ R.‚ & Lameire‚ N.‚ 2006). Acute loss of renal function can be due to poor perfusion to the kidneys‚ called prerenal

. Update Article NSAIDs and Kidney P Ejaz‚ K Bhojani‚ VR Joshi* Abstract NSAIDs are commonly used drugs. Even with the advent of selective COX-2 inhibitors‚ nephrotoxicity still remains a concern. The adverse effects of NSAIDs are mediated via inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis from arachidonic acid by non-specific blocking of the enzyme cyclooxygenase leading to vasoconstriction and reversible mild renal impairment in volume contracted states. When unopposed‚ this may lead to acute tubular

diseases in which an immunologic mechanism triggers inflammation and proliferation of glomerular tissue that can result in damage to the basement membrane‚ mesangium‚ or capillary endothelium. Hippocrates originally described the manifestation of back pain and hematuria‚ which lead to oliguria or anuria. With the development of the microscope‚ Langhans was later able to describe these pathophysiologic glomerular changes. Most original research focuses on the poststreptococcal patient.
