In recent years both doctors and patients have become increasingly
aware that many essential drugs may induce unfortunate side-effects
in susceptible individuals. The kidney is the principal route of
excretion for many of these substances and may as a result become
involved in pathological processes. Developments in haemodialysis
and haemo perfusion may be of value in increasing the rate of
excretion of potentially toxic substances but it is essential that
the advantages and disadvantages of these techniques are fully
appreciated by all with an interest in clinical practice. This book
details the recent advances in understanding of analgesic
nephropathy, interstitial nephritis, elimination of poisons and
drug monitoring. Each chapter has been written by a recognized
expert in the field and provides information of relevance and
practical import ance to the average clinician. The developments of
the last decade have emphasized that drug toxicity is a subject on
which all clinicians, but perhaps especially nephrologists, should
be fully informed. ABOUT TH E EDITOR Professor Graeme R. D. Catto
is Professor in Medicine and Thera peutics at the University of
Aberdeen and Honorary Consultant Phy sician/Nephrologist to the
Grampian Health Board. His current interest in transplant
immunology was stimulated as a Harkness Fellow at Harvard Medicial
School and the Peter Bent Brighton Hospital, Boston, USA. He is a
member of many medical societies including the Association of
Physicians of Great Britain and Ireland, the Renal Association and
the Transplantation Society."
