Title: [Drug-induced urinary lithiasis]. Author: Reveillaud RJ, Daudon M. Journal: Presse Med; 1983 Oct 29; 12(38):2389-92. PubMed ID: 6138768. Abstract: All urinary calculi should be thoroughly examined. Among 2 000 calculi analyzed by infra-red spectrophotometry, some were found to contain rare constituants and drugs which might be held responsible for urinary stone formation. These included glafenine, triamterene, co-trimoxazole, sulphaguanidine, allopurinol, phenazopyridine, flumequine and anti-acid powders containing aluminium, calcium and magnesium trisilicates and/or carbonates or bicarbonates. Considering that these drugs are widely used, the incidence of drug-induced urinary calculi appears to be very low.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
