Bismuth Subcitrate Nephrotoxicity

Abstract: Bismuth subcitrate is a known nephrotoxic agent that may lead to acute oliguric renal failure when ingested in toxic doses. We report a 17-year-old girl who was admitted to the emergency room with complaints of nausea, vomiting, and anuria. She had taken 25 tablets containing 300 mg bismuth subcitrate (total 7.5 g). The patient was managed with hemodialysis started a week after ingestion. Bismuth subcitrate nephrotoxicity should be considered in the differential diagnosis of acute renal failure.

“…28,29 Nephrotoxicity has been considered as the major adverse effect of high-dose intake of CBS. 30,31 We provided data to substantiate that little or reversible renal damage following the intake of CBS (500 mg kg −1 ) + 3NAC (580 mg kg −1 ) for 4 consecutive days in mice as adjudged by the BUN and creatinine levels in a 28 day duration. Considering the emergence of SARS-COV-2 variants 32 and resistance to anti-SARS-CoV-2 agents, e.g.…”

“…Although bismuth is key drugs during eradication therapy, because bismuth is significantly eliminated during HD and is toxic in uremic patients, bismuth will be difficult to select at eradication therapy for HD or advanced CKD patients [40,41]. In fact, there was no clinical comparative studies (e.g., randomized control study and cohort study) to investigate efficacy of bismuthcontaining regimens for HD or advanced CKD patients.…”

“…In addition, in the absence of individual susceptibility testing, the first-line recommended treatment in areas (or groups) of high (>15%) or unknown clarithromycin resistance is bismuth quadruple therapy (grade: B2, and agreement: 92%). However, as mentioned above, because bismuth is not an appropriate drug to use in patients receiving HD, we think that individualized eradication therapy based on antimicrobial susceptibility may be useful [40,41].…”
