Overview
Natural History
Complications
Complications of analgesic nephropathy include pyelonephritis[1] and end-stage kidney disease. Risk factors for poor prognosis include recurrent urinary tract infection and persistently elevated blood pressure. Analgesic nephropathy also appears to increase the risk of developing cancers of the urinary system.[2]
