Renal Toxicity of Lisinopril and Rosuvastatin, Alone and in Combination, in Wistar Rats

Abstract: The aim of study was to evaluate the effect of commonly used lisinopril, rosuvastatin and their combined action on site-specific nephrotoxicity in rats using clusterin and microalbumin nephrotoxic biomarkers and other related parameters using oral gavage. Rosuvastatin at 2 different doses showed increase in urinary microalbumin levels whereas lisinopril and its combination with rosuvastatin at 2 different doses did not show urinary microalbumin excretion indicating beneficial effects of lisinopril in terms of … Show more

“…Although data on the potential renal toxicity of high-potency statins are controversial (Tiwari 2006; Golomb and Evans 2008; Dodiya et al 2011), two meta-analyses showed that statin therapy is safe and effective in preventing mortality and major cardiovascular events in patients with non-dialysis-dependent chronic kidney disease (CKD) (Upadhyay et al 2012, 2013; Palmer et al 2012). However, these studies provide very limited evidence to support the use of statins in patients on dialysis, and statin therapy was not found to be effective in reducing the risk of kidney failure or decline in kidney function (Upadhyay 2013).…”

“…Such was the case for immunosuppression following cyclosporin A treatment, antiproliferative effects and bone marrow suppression following doxorubicin treatment, and the kidney toxicity following captopril or lisinopril treatment [65]. On the other hand, where a mechanistic pattern had not been developed for cardiotoxicity, no prediction of this effect could be possible even for a treatment such as doxorubin, where cardiomyopathy is the major adverse effect in both rats and humans [27, 66], albeit analysis of significantly changed individual metabolites has the potential to suggest such toxicity (data not shown).…”

Strikingly, lisinopril have been associated with instances of acute liver injury after 1-4 years of therapy, a distinctly unusual pattern of drug induced liver injury [17][18][19] .…”
