Two patients developed kidney failure due to oxalate deposition in the kidney while taking orlistat. Cessation of orlistat was followed by partial recovery of kidney function. The mechanism by which orlistat causes hyperoxaluria and the management of orlistat-induced oxalate nephropathy is reviewed. We suggest that all patients taking orlistat are at risk of this condition, which may develop insidiously and is easily overlooked. Monitoring of kidney function of patients taking orlistat is warranted.
两名患者在服用奥利司他期间因草酸在肾脏沉积而出现肾衰竭。停用奥利司他后,肾功能部分恢复。本文综述了奥利司他导致高草酸尿症的机制以及奥利司他所致草酸肾病的治疗方法。我们认为,所有服用奥利司他的患者都有患此病的风险,该病可能隐匿发展且容易被忽视。对服用奥利司他的患者进行肾功能监测是必要的。
