Deterioration in renal function associated with angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor therapy is not always reversible

Abstract: Fifteen patients presented between January 1986 and January 1991 with deterioration in renal function coincident with the introduction of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors. There was evidence of extrarenal vascular disease in 12 patients and preexisting renal impairment in 13. Four patients remained dialysis-dependent and died within 4 weeks of presentation. Five patients required short-term dialysis. Serum creatinine remained above pre-treatment values in seven patients. Conventional explanations of th… Show more

“…6 Although ACE-I are considered safe in the presence of renal failure, 7 episodes of acute decreases in renal function have been reported. [8][9][10] Particularly in low-flow states, as in the presence of renal artery stenosis or volume depletion, acute declines in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and impairment of potassium excretion may occur. The effect on GFR has been shown to be mediated by bradykinin, levels of which are increased by ACE-I, but are unaffected by ARBs.…”

“…The use of ACEIs in patients with kidney disease can also cause renal excretory function to decrease 13, 16, 31, 32. SCr and urea did not change significantly in group‐MD or RD and remained within the reference range in all but 1 dog in group‐RD, which presented with mild azotemia and concentrated urine at D60.…”
