The incidence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is on the upswing in most industrialised countries. The protean nature of CKD-related diseases is such that wide arrays of healthcare providers are now routinely called on to assist in the management of these patients. Quite logically, this level of attention exposes CKD patients to diverse therapies, many of which are pharmacological in nature; thus, the interplay between CKD and the dosing of various drug therapies becomes an important treatment consideration that requires continuous vigilance.[1] …
