Welcome/Introduction

The goal for this education is to provide primary and specialist care teams a better understanding about the significant role of medications and diet in individuals with chronic kidney disease. Some medications may require dose adjustment or avoidance in the later stages of CKD due to nephrotoxic effects. Diet is also important throughout all stages of CKD and recommendations should be individualized to help improve patient understanding and compliance.

  • Review potentially nephrotoxic medications
