…curve, not a line: below the threshold nothing happens, and in renal failure the threshold dose must be raised to achieve any effect at all.

…be neutralised completely with protamine within minutes. This is why unfractionated heparin is the first choice in severe renal failure, in the bleeding-prone patient…

…adjustment in renal impairment. Unlike verapamil and diltiazem, amlodipine has no clinically significant negative inotropic effect and can therefore be used in heart failure with…

…worsening heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, DELIVER showed equivalent benefit with preserved and mildly reduced EF, and DAPA-CKD demonstrated slowed renal function decline…

…reduced heart failure events regardless of ejection fraction in EMPEROR-Reduced and EMPEROR-Preserved, and slowed renal function decline down to eGFR 20 in EMPA…

Corlopam Selective dopamine-1 receptor agonist The only antihypertensive that increases renal perfusion while blood pressure falls. A selective D1 agonist without alpha or beta…

…that approximately 80 % of absorbed drug is eliminated renally, so renal function governs treatment entirely. Dyspepsia affects one in ten patients and is the most…

…quickly, which is an advantage: the drug suits as-needed use and can be discontinued with rapid recovery of renal function and platelet function. The…

…entirely free of sedation: a distinct minority of patients become drowsy, and this should be asked about in professional drivers. Renal function governs the dose.

…regimen. Used in peripheral neuropathic pain and as adjunctive treatment in focal epilepsy. Excreted unchanged renally, making renal function the single most important dosing variable.

…Den aktiva metaboliten morfin-6-glukuronid utsöndras renalt och ackumuleras vid njursvikt — det förklarar varför äldre med nedsatt njurfunktion blir sederade på en dos som…

…och kan laddas intravenöst utan blodtrycksfall eller EKG-övervakning. Nästan hela dosen utsöndras renalt i oförändrad form, vilket gör njurfunktionen till den enda variabel som…

…går att lita på. Oxazepam är själv en metabolit och behöver ingen oxidativ fas 1-metabolism — den glukuronideras direkt och utsöndras renalt, utan aktiva nedbrytningsprodukter…
