Drug Dosing in Advanced CKD and ESKD

November 03, 2023 | 04:30 PM - 06:00 PM

Session Description

Many medications are cleared by the kidneys. A delicate balance must therefore be achieved between therapeutic and toxic accumulation of medications in patients with reduced kidney function. This session discusses the factors to consider when prescribing and de-prescribing medications for patients with advanced CKD and patients receiving dialysis.

Learning Objective(s)

• Outline the factors to consider when prescribing medications in patients with reduced kidney function
• Evaluate the efficacy of thiazide diuretics in patients with advanced CKD or ESKD on dialysis
• Describe the contribution of tubular secretory function on the clearance of medications in advanced CKD
• Discuss the updated KDIGO guidelines regarding polypharmacy in patients with CKD
