Analgesic nephropathy associated with paracetamol
Australian and New Zealand Journal of Medicine
|February 1, 1984
Abstract:
Seven cases of analgesic nephropathy due to excessive ingestion of paracetamol are reported. None of these patients had been taking any other analgesic. All had radiological features of papillary necrosis. With the increasing use of paracetamol as a mild analgesic it is necessary to be aware of the possibility that paracetamol may induce analgesic nephropathy.
