Sick Day Medication Guidance for Adults with Chronic Kidney Disease in Outpatient Settings.

Key takeaways

People with kidney disease are more likely than others to be harmed by their own medicines. The risk is highest when they are sick with vomiting, diarrhea, or fever. This review looks at sick day guidance, which means pausing or lowering certain medicines during those illnesses, as recommended by health groups. It is a review of advice, not a new study, so it has no new results.
