title: Loop diuretic-induced pancreatitis with rechallenge in a patient with malignant hypertension and renal insufficiency.
abstract: A case is presented in which a 34-year-old man with renal insufficiency and malignant hypertension develops acute pancreatitis with abdominal symptoms and hyperamylasemia after being treated with loop diuretics (furosemide and bumetanide). When reviewing the literature we found reports of an association between diuretic use and pancreatitis.
