[Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs--nephrotoxic mechanism of action].
Non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs are easily available and commonly used. Mechanism of their action is based on inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis. Prostaglandins are arachidonic acid derivatives that are responsible, among others, for regulation of renal blood flow. In some kidney disorders as well as in hemodynamic disturbances, their increased release aims at balancing substances causing kidney ischemia. Blocking prostaglandin synthesis in such conditions may result in development of nephrotoxic effect, manifesting in water-electrolyte imbalance, acute tubulo-interstitial nephropathy, nephrotic syndrome, acute and chronic renal papillary necrosis as well as acute or chronic renal failure. Analgesic nephropathy with papillary necrosis is a particular form of the nephrotoxic effect of non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs. Development of this complication has been described in patients abusing phenacetin or other analgesic drugs and especially their combination.
