- Abstract
A number of medications used in the presence of renal disease require dose adjustments be made. The health care professional should know a drug's route of elimination, the percentage of protein binding, and the percentage of a normal dose removed by dialysis. This information is a guideline and should be used to start therapy. The clinician must understand that individual adjustments are the rule rather than the exception. Copyright © 2002 by W.B.
