  • Title: Cimetidine-induced interstitial nephritis with response to prednisone therapy.
    Author: Kaye WA, Passero MA, Solomon RJ, Johnson LA.
    Journal: Arch Intern Med; 1983 Apr; 143(4):811-2. PubMed ID: 6838302.
    Abstract:
    Acute renal failure developed in a patient after she received cimetidine therapy. A renal biopsy specimen showed acute interstitial nephritis. Withdrawal of cimetidine therapy led to improvement of renal function. Rechallenge with cimetidine occurred during prednisone therapy. Renal function continued to improve, but worsened when the treatment with these steroids was discontinued.
