title: [Drug-induced calculi].
abstract: Drug-induced urinary calculi are rarely observed. However, it is useful to know this etiology. A complete anamnesis of drugs and dosages is mandatory if a patient presents with lithiasis, since some pharmacotherapies may carry an enhanced lithogenic risk. The list of lithogenic drugs is discussed. In order to yield preventive data, infrared, spectrophotometry is the best available analytic method.
