Measurement of Renal Side-effects

  • Chapter
Early Phase Drug Evaluation in Man

  • 41 Accesses

Abstract

Measuring the therapeutic effects of drugs on the kidney has been dealt with elsewhere in this book, and this chapter will concentrate on the methods available for detecting their adverse effects. Space does not permit a detailed critique of each analytical method, but reference has been made to recent reviews.
