  2. Apixaban - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apixaban

    Common side effects include bleeding and nausea. [6] [7] Other side effects may include bleeding around the spine and allergic reactions. [6] Use is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding. [1] [7] Use appears to be relatively safe in those with mild kidney problems. [7] Compared to warfarin it has fewer interactions with other ...

  3. Direct factor Xa inhibitors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_factor_Xa_inhibitors

    Side effects may include bleeding, most commonly from the nose, gastrointestinal tract (GI) or genitourinary system. [2] Compared to the risk of bleeding with warfarin use, direct factor Xa inhibitors have a higher risk of GI bleeding, but lower risk of bleeding in the brain. [2]

  4. Analgesic nephropathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analgesic_nephropathy

    Proper kidney function depends upon adequate blood flow to the kidney. Kidney blood flow is a complex, tightly regulated process that relies on a number of hormones and other small molecules, such as prostaglandins. Under normal circumstances, prostaglandin E2 (PGE 2) produced by the kidney is necessary to support adequate blood flow to the kidney.

  5. Nephrotoxicity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nephrotoxicity

    Nephrotoxicity is toxicity in the kidneys. It is a poisonous effect of some substances, both toxic chemicals and medications, on kidney function. [1] There are various forms, [2] and some drugs may affect kidney function in more than one way. Nephrotoxins are substances displaying nephrotoxicity.

  6. Discovery and development of direct Xa inhibitors - Wikipedia

    The p-methoxy group of apixaban connects to S1 pocket of FXa but does not appear to have any interaction with any residues in this region of FXa. The pyrazole N-2 nitrogen atom of apixaban interacts with Gln-192 and the carbonyl oxygen interacts with Gly-216. The phenyl lactam group of apixaban is positioned between Tyr-99 and Phe-174 and due ...

    But some research has noted rare but serious side effects of once-weekly, 2.4-milligram (mg) semaglutide injections, such as pancreatitis, acute kidney injury, gallbladder issues, and thyroid cancer.

  8. Augmented renal clearance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Augmented_renal_clearance

    Normal kidney function measured by creatinine clearance varies in different populations based on age, gender, race, fluid balance, and other factors, but also can be affected by diseases themselves. [1] This makes it challenging to assign an objective number or scale to kidney function.

  9. Low-molecular-weight heparin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-molecular-weight_heparin

    Hepatin's anticoagulant effects are typically reversible with protamine sulfate, while protamine's effect on LMWH is limited. LMWH has less of an effect on thrombin than heparin, but about the same effect on Factor Xa. Due to its renal clearance, LMWH is contraindicated in patients with kidney disease who can safely use unfractionated heparin.
