Abstract:
An increase in urinary enzyme activities reflected biopsy confirmed aminoglycoside nephrotoxicity (proximal tubular injury) before changes in blood urea nitrogen, serum creatinine, urinary osmolality and urinary protein excretion. Netilmicin, a semisynthetic derivative of gentamicin, was less nephrotoxic than gentamicin.
