Primary Prevention
There are no effective primary preventive measures for renal tubular acidosis. However, preventive approaches can be helpful in the case of Fanconi syndrome secondary to toxin exposure which includes:
- Regulation of the use of both lead and cadmium exposure in high-risk groups with caution.
- Changes in tetracycline manufacture.
- Use of cisplatin at lower dose levels.
- Avoidance of the offending agents in patients with hereditary sensitivity to particular carbohydrates.
