Reduction of renal function by newer nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. 1978

R P Kimberly, and R E Bowden, and H R Keiser, and P H Plotz

Because aspirin and indomethacin, two structurally dissimilar anti-inflammatory agents which reduce prostaglandin synthesis, both alter renal function, we studied the effect on renal function of three new nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs which also reduce prostaglandin synthesis. We have shown that ibuprofen, naproxen, and fenoprofen are able to reduce renal function in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus and that such changes are associated with reduced excretion of urinary prostaglandin E (PGE)-like compounds. The changes may attenuate despite continued drug administration. These findings emphasize that renal function must be assessed with caution in patients taking these and perhaps other drugs which inhibit prostaglandin synthesis.

D008180 Lupus Erythematosus, Systemic A chronic, relapsing, inflammatory, and often febrile multisystemic disorder of connective tissue, characterized principally by involvement of the skin, joints, kidneys, and serosal membranes. It is of unknown etiology, but is thought to represent a failure of the regulatory mechanisms of the autoimmune system. The disease is marked by a wide range of system dysfunctions, an elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and the formation of LE cells in the blood or bone marrow.

Originally isolated from sheep seminal fluid and vesicles, they are found in many organs and tissues and play a major role in mediating various physiological activities. PGE
