[Renal function under parenteral application of aescinat (author's transl)].
18 persons with unimpaired renal function were examined, if the parenteral application of aescinat was followed by disturbances of renal function. 10 of these persons got for 3 days 10 mg of sodium-aescinat per day administered intravenously. The other test persons got for 6 days 20 mg of aescinat administered. There was no alteration in any of these cases either of serum electrolytes, blood sugar, creatinine, urea, urine analysis, creatinine clearance or hippuran clearance. We come to the conclusion that there has to be a strict indication for the application of aescinat in patients with threatening or apparent renal failure and a cautious dosage on the other hand. Patients with unimpaired renal function can be treated in normal dosage without great danger of renal or other side effects with aescinat for avoiding oedema while passing renal calculi or after plastic surgery.
