[Expert consensus on the treatment of chronic kidney disease with tuberculosis (2022 version)]

China is a country with a high burden of chronic kidney disease(CKD) and tuberculosis. Patients with CKD are at increased risk of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection, and the prevalence of CKD is also significantly higher in patients with tuberculosis. The coexistence of the two diseases brings great difficulties for clinical treatment. In this consensus, the general situation, clinical characteristics, metabolic characteristics of anti-tuberculous drugs, and the principles of protocol formulation of such patients were discussed and summarized. When making anti-tuberculosis regimen for patients with chronic renal failure, drugs that metabolized through liver, liver and kidney channels or metabolic pathways other than liver and kidney should be selected as far as possible. Drugs with significant renal toxicity and mainly metabolized by the kidney should be avoided. For CKD patients with mild decrease in GFR (60-89 ml·min^-1·1.73 m^-2), anti-tuberculosis regimen should be carried out according to the national standards and guidelines, without reducing the dose of anti-tuberculosis drugs. For CKD patients with significantly reduced GFR, mainly CKD3b, stages 4-5, and those receiving dialysis, the anti-tuberculosis regimen must be adjusted according to the GFR. For CKD patients with GFR less than 30 ml·min^-1·1.73 m^-2, this consensus also recommended anti-tuberculous regimen for initial, retreated and multi-drug-resistant tuberculosis patients. This consensus aimed to improve clinicians' understanding of CKD complicated with tuberculosis, standardize the clinical treatment, improve the curative effect, and reduce adverse reactions. Data from previous trials of CKD combined with TB treatment are still scarce. We look forward to further investigation and evidence-based medical research on CKD with tuberculosis in the future, and make positive efforts for the control of CKD and tuberculosis in China.
