of which almost 40&#37; were prescribed the ACEI&#47;ARB-II &#43; diuretics combination&#46; Loboz et al&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2 </span>noticed that an increase in the dose of diuretics was related to a decrease in GFR and&#44; for the remaining drugs&#44; the risk was present even at low doses&#46; Likewise&#44; in our case&#44; patients were consuming therapeutic or even low doses of diuretics and other drugs&#46; This suggests that administering small doses of these drugs in combination fails to reduce the risk of AKI&#46; Lou LM et al&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">6</span> and Huerta et al&#46;15 also observed an increase in AKI incidence with the combination of ACEI and diuretics&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> The association of ACEI&#47;ARB-II &#43; NSAIDs presented an elevated incidence&#44; although with a very broad confidence interval&#44; probably due to the limited number of cases&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> Huerta et al&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">15</span> did not find an increased risk for the combination of NSAIDs with renin-angiotensin system inhibitors&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> Our data differ from the data found by Lapi et al&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">16</span>&#44; who found no risk for AKI when using dual therapy with diuretics or ACEI&#47;ARB-II &#43; NSAIDs&#46; They only found a risk for AKI with the Triple Whammy&#44; which was particularly noticeable in the first 30 days of treatment&#46; In our study&#44; we have seen that the hospitalized patients had been receiving treatment for more than four weeks&#44; regardless of the drug group&#44; and the triggering factor for AKI had been a concurrent disease causing hypovolemia&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> The profile of a patient at risk of suffering AKI with these drugs is an elderly patient with multiple conditions and on multiple concomitant medicantions&#46; This risk exists even with drugs at low therapeutic doses&#46; The presence of hypoalbuminemia &#60; 3 g&#47;dL is alarming in 51&#37; of hospitalization episodes due to AKITW&#44; of which 19&#37; were severe cases &#40;&#60; 2&#46;5 g&#47; dL&#41;&#46; This fact reflects the degree of malnutrition in a large part of the elderly population despite living at home&#46; In 67&#37; of cases&#44; there was a triggering factor for AKI&#44; such as fever&#44; vomiting or diarrhea&#44; in previous days&#46; What probably makes the glomerular filtration drop abruptly is a concurrent disease causing volume depletion or&#44; simply&#44; an increase in baseline metabolism in a patient with intraglomerular pressure decreased by vasodilated efferent arterioles secondary to treatment with ACEI or ARB-II&#44; combined with a circulating volume reduced by diuretics&#46; Elderly patients are known to maintain their GF thanks to a complex system of intraglomerular resistance&#46; Due to the vessel rigidity present in these patients&#44; the kidneys find it hard to adapt to changes in intraglomerular pressure and&#44; therefore&#44; are very sensitive to volume changes&#46; This seems to suggest that the cause of the AKI was not the treatment with these drugs&#44; but the onset of a concurrent disease&#46; Of the admitted patients&#44; 74&#37; were on chronic diuretic treatment &#40;more than four weeks&#41; and 21&#46;6&#37; were on two diuretics combined&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> These were patients with decreased baseline GF&#44; in many cases with a history of CKD or CHF&#44; who were treated with diuretics&#44; primarily for hypertension&#46; They generally had mild or moderate AKI&#44; with small creatinine increases that were resolved with hydration in most cases&#46; Nevertheless&#44; 10&#37; of patients had CKD as a sequela and three patients died of hyperkalemia during admission&#46; In four of five cases&#44; the patients&#8217; medical records did not specify a cause of pain justifying the chronic use of NSAIDs&#44; and in 59&#37; of cases where the cause was specified&#44; it was chronic joint pain&#46; These data reflect that NSAID therapies are started at times of acute pain and are not properly withdrawn afterwards&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> The 2012 KDIGO guidelines<span class="elsevierStyleSup">17</span> already recommended starting treatment with ACEI and ARB-II at low doses in patients with GFR &#60; 45 mL&#47;min and discontinue it temporarily in cases with concurrent disease&#46; As for NSAIDs&#44; the recommendation is to avoid their use in patients treated with renin-angiotensin system inhibitors&#44; and prolonged therapies are not recommended if GFR is &#60; 60 mL&#47;min&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> The STOPP&#47;START<span class="elsevierStyleSup">18</span> criteria determine that prescribing diuretics for isolated ankle edema is inappropriate in patients older than 65 years because there is no evidence of their efficacy&#46; They are also not recommended as first-line monotherapy in hypertension&#46; NSAIDs should be avoided in moderate to severe hypertension and CHF&#44; and their use for more than three months to relieve mild joint pain should be avoided&#46; In cases of CKD&#44; they are not recommended either&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> Even though NSAIDs are not formally contraindicated in the elderly&#44; they are a high-risk population for adverse effects&#44; particularly AKI&#44; and their use should be the result of a thorough risk-benefit assessment&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> Only 58&#37; of physicians noticed evident signs of dehydration on admission&#46; Therefore&#44; it is advisable that&#44; in case of a concurrent condition&#44; treatment with at least one of the target drugs be discontinued&#46; This should be applied primarily to diuretics&#44; even if the physician does not notice signs of dehydration&#46; When initiating these combinations&#44; renal function and creatinine values are to be monitored&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">19</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> The Fournier&#44; et al&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">20</span> group from Toulouse has recently performed a new analysis of the review they conducted on their pharmacovigilance database of adverse pharmacological effects in 2012&#46; Their aim was to study whether NSAID half-life had an impact on the possibility of developing AKI&#46; An association was found&#44; not with the drugs&#8217; half-life&#44; but with the number of associated drugs&#44; which coincided with the findings in previous publications and with our results&#46; In our case&#44; due to the small size of our sample&#44; it was impossible to analyze incidence differences based on the drugs&#8217; half-lives&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> A cost of &#8364;214&#44;604&#47;100&#44;000 inhabitants&#47;year for hospitalization episodes derived from a combined prescription of these drugs is a significant economic problem and&#44; evidently&#44; the three deaths that occurred during admission due to hyperkalemia could have been avoided with correct prescription&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> Our study is not limited to the utilization of large databases&#46; It is focused on drug-related AKI in conjunction with the auditing of medical records by a nephrologist to ensure that the AKITW included in this study are only due to the treatment with these drugs&#44; either alone or combined&#44; without the contribution of any other factor except for the prerenal situations discussed above&#46; This avoids confusion due to the high mortality associated with AKI for other causes&#46; Most of the studies conducted so far are based on the utilization of large databases focused on overall AKI treatment&#46; We analyzed the clinical patient characteristics to create a profile of at-risk patients&#44; and we quantified the personal &#40;mortality&#41; and economic costs of AKI caused by incorrect drug combinations&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> The limitations of our study are the small number of cases and not having included treatment with ASA at low doses &#40;100 and 300 mg&#41; as an NSAID but instead as antiplatelet drug&#44; as indicated in the pharmaceutical coding&#44; since a large part of the patients admitted &#40;19&#41; were receiving prophylactic treatment at these doses&#46; Paracetamol at doses greater than 4 g&#47;d could also have an NSAID effect&#46; Both Paracetamol and the remaining NSAIDs are over-the-counter drugs in our pharmacies &#40;our data only include NSAIDs prescribed by their physicians&#41;&#44; so the use of NSAIDs could be underestimated&#46; We have also not analyzed the impact of impaired renal function cases that do not require admission&#46; Therefore&#44; the true incidence of AKITW may be higher and may also be generating elevated expenditures in the outpatient setting&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">Conclusion </span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> Diuretics in monotherapy&#44; dual and triple combination therapy &#40;Triple Whammy&#41; have an elevated incidence of AKI&#46; Dual therapies including diuretics show the same incidence of AKI as the Triple Whammy&#46; The profile of the at-risk patient is an elderly patient with an underlying renal or cardiac disease&#46; The problem does not seem to be the drug itself but the onset of a concurrent disease causing hypovolemia&#46; Monitoring renal function and potassium levels is recommended when these therapies are initiated and in situations of concurrent disease&#44; following the recommendations from scientific societies &#40;KDIGO and STOPP-START criteria&#41;&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> In cases of concurrent disease&#44; the temporary discontinuation of the Triple Whammy drugs&#44; particularly diuretics&#44; is recommended&#46; The use of NSAIDs should be minimized and treatment with diuretics should be monitored following hospital discharge&#46; Patient treatment should be adjusted to the situation at hand&#44; with special attention given to people over the age of 80 who have concurrent conditions&#46; AKI derived from a combination of Triple Whammy drugs has demonstrated high health care-related expenditures and avoidable deaths&#46; Health care authorities should be aware of this serious issue and limit the over-the-counter availability of NSAIDs at pharmacies&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">Acknowledgments </span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> The authors would like to thank the <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Sociedad Espa&#241;ola de Nefrolog&#237;a</span> &#40;SEN&#41;

diuretics &#43; NSAIDs&#41; users had an AKI incidence similar to those taking dual therapies that included diuretics&#46; The main reason for the prescription of diuretics in our patients was high blood pressure&#46; Out of all the patients admitted due to AKITW&#44; 87&#37; used diuretics&#44; 84&#46;6&#37; used ACEI&#47;ARB-II and 38&#46;5&#37; used NSAIDs&#46; In the population who had been prescribed one of these drugs&#44;

for the remaining drugs&#44; the risk was present even at low doses&#46; Likewise&#44; in our case&#44; patients were consuming therapeutic or even low doses of diuretics and other drugs&#46; This suggests that administering small doses of these drugs in combination fails to reduce the risk of AKI&#46; Lou LM et al&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">6</span> and Huerta et al&#46;15 also observed an increase in AKI incidence with the combination of ACEI and diuretics&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> The association of ACEI&#47;ARB-II &#43;

who found no risk for AKI when using dual therapy with diuretics or ACEI&#47;ARB-II &#43; NSAIDs&#46; They only found a risk for AKI with the Triple Whammy&#44; which was particularly noticeable in the first 30 days of treatment&#46; In our study&#44; we have seen that the hospitalized patients had been receiving treatment for more than four weeks&#44; regardless of the drug group&#44; and the triggering factor for AKI had been a concurrent disease causing hypovolemia&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> The profile of a patient at risk of suffering AKI with these drugs is an elderly patient with multiple conditions and on multiple concomitant medicantions&#46; This risk exists even with drugs at low therapeutic doses&#46; The presence of hypoalbuminemia &#60; 3 g&#47;dL is alarming in 51&#37; of hospitalization episodes due to AKITW&#44; of which 19&#37; were severe cases &#40;&#60; 2&#46;5 g&#47; dL&#41;&#46; This fact reflects the degree of malnutrition in a large part of the elderly population despite living at home&#46; In 67&#37; of cases&#44; there was a triggering factor for AKI&#44; such as fever&#44; vomiting or diarrhea&#44; in previous days&#46; What probably makes the glomerular filtration drop abruptly is a concurrent disease causing volume depletion or&#44; simply&#44; an increase in baseline metabolism in a patient with intraglomerular pressure decreased by vasodilated efferent arterioles secondary to treatment with ACEI or ARB-II&#44; combined with a circulating volume reduced by diuretics&#46; Elderly patients are known to maintain their GF thanks to a complex system of intraglomerular resistance&#46; Due to the vessel rigidity present in these patients&#44; the kidneys find it hard to adapt to changes in intraglomerular pressure and&#44; therefore&#44; are very sensitive to volume changes&#46; This seems to suggest that the cause of the AKI was not the treatment with these drugs&#44; but the onset of a concurrent disease&#46; Of the admitted patients&#44; 74&#37; were on chronic diuretic treatment &#40;more than four weeks&#41; and 21&#46;6&#37; were on two diuretics combined&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> These were patients with decreased baseline GF&#44; in many cases with a history of CKD or CHF&#44; who were treated with diuretics&#44; primarily for hypertension&#46; They generally had mild or moderate AKI&#44; with small creatinine increases that were resolved with hydration in most cases&#46; Nevertheless&#44; 10&#37; of patients had CKD as a sequela and three patients died of hyperkalemia during admission&#46; In four of five cases&#44; the patients&#8217; medical records did not specify a cause of pain justifying the chronic use of NSAIDs&#44; and in 59&#37; of cases where the cause was specified&#44; it was chronic joint pain&#46; These data reflect that NSAID therapies are started at times of acute pain and are not properly withdrawn afterwards&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> The 2012 KDIGO guidelines<span class="elsevierStyleSup">17</span> already recommended starting treatment with ACEI and ARB-II at low doses in patients with GFR &#60; 45 mL&#47;min and discontinue it temporarily in cases with concurrent disease&#46; As for NSAIDs&#44; the recommendation is to avoid their use in patients treated with renin-angiotensin system inhibitors&#44; and prolonged therapies are not recommended if GFR is &#60; 60 mL&#47;min&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> The STOPP&#47;START<span class="elsevierStyleSup">18</span> criteria determine that prescribing diuretics for isolated ankle edema is inappropriate in patients older than 65 years because there is no evidence of their efficacy&#46; They are also not recommended as first-line monotherapy in hypertension&#46; NSAIDs should be avoided in moderate to severe hypertension and CHF&#44; and their use for more than three months to relieve mild joint pain should be avoided&#46; In cases of CKD&#44; they are not recommended either&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> Even though NSAIDs are not formally contraindicated in the elderly&#44; they are a high-risk population for adverse effects&#44; particularly AKI&#44; and their use should be the result of a thorough risk-benefit assessment&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> Only 58&#37; of physicians noticed evident signs of dehydration on admission&#46; Therefore&#44; it is advisable that&#44; in case of a concurrent condition&#44; treatment with at least one of the target drugs be discontinued&#46; This should be applied primarily to diuretics&#44; even if the physician does not notice signs of dehydration&#46; When initiating these combinations&#44; renal function and creatinine values are to be monitored&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">19</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> The Fournier&#44; et al&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">20</span> group from Toulouse has recently performed a new analysis of the review they conducted on their pharmacovigilance database of adverse pharmacological effects in 2012&#46; Their aim was to study whether NSAID half-life had an impact on the possibility of developing AKI&#46; An association was found&#44; not with the drugs&#8217; half-life&#44; but with the number of associated drugs&#44; which coincided with the findings in previous publications and with our results&#46; In our case&#44; due to the small size of our sample&#44; it was impossible to analyze incidence differences based on the drugs&#8217; half-lives&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> A cost of &#8364;214&#44;604&#47;100&#44;000 inhabitants&#47;year for hospitalization episodes derived from a combined prescription of these drugs is a significant economic problem and&#44; evidently&#44; the three deaths that occurred during admission due to hyperkalemia could have been avoided with correct prescription&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> Our study is not limited to the utilization of large databases&#46; It is focused on drug-related AKI in conjunction with the auditing of medical records by a nephrologist to ensure that the AKITW included in this study are only due to the treatment with these drugs&#44; either alone or combined&#44; without the contribution of any other factor except for the prerenal situations discussed above&#46; This avoids confusion due to the high mortality associated with AKI for other causes&#46; Most of the studies conducted so far are based on the utilization of large databases focused on overall AKI treatment&#46; We analyzed the clinical patient characteristics to create a profile of at-risk patients&#44; and we quantified the personal &#40;mortality&#41; and economic costs of AKI caused by incorrect drug combinations&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> The limitations of our study are the small number of cases and not having included treatment with ASA at low doses &#40;100 and 300 mg&#41; as an NSAID but instead as antiplatelet drug&#44; as indicated in the pharmaceutical coding&#44; since a large part of the patients admitted &#40;19&#41; were receiving prophylactic treatment at these doses&#46; Paracetamol at doses greater than 4 g&#47;d could also have an NSAID effect&#46; Both Paracetamol and the remaining NSAIDs are over-the-counter drugs in our pharmacies &#40;our data only include NSAIDs prescribed by their physicians&#41;&#44; so the use of NSAIDs could be underestimated&#46; We have also not analyzed the impact of impaired renal function cases that do not require admission&#46; Therefore&#44; the true incidence of AKITW may be higher and may also be generating elevated expenditures in the outpatient setting&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">Conclusion </span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> Diuretics in monotherapy&#44; dual and triple combination therapy &#40;Triple Whammy&#41; have an elevated incidence of AKI&#46; Dual therapies including diuretics show the same incidence of AKI as the Triple Whammy&#46; The profile of the at-risk patient is an elderly patient with an underlying renal or cardiac disease&#46; The problem does not seem to be the drug itself but the onset of a concurrent disease causing hypovolemia&#46; Monitoring renal function and potassium levels is recommended when these therapies are initiated and in situations of concurrent disease&#44; following the recommendations from scientific societies &#40;KDIGO and STOPP-START criteria&#41;&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> In cases of concurrent disease&#44; the temporary discontinuation of the Triple Whammy drugs&#44; particularly diuretics&#44; is recommended&#46; The use of NSAIDs should be minimized and treatment with diuretics should be monitored following hospital discharge&#46; Patient treatment should be adjusted to the situation at hand&#44; with special attention given to people over the age of 80 who have concurrent conditions&#46; AKI derived from a combination of Triple Whammy drugs has demonstrated high health care-related expenditures and avoidable deaths&#46; Health care authorities should be aware of this serious issue and limit the over-the-counter availability of NSAIDs at pharmacies&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">Acknowledgments </span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> The authors would like to thank the <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Sociedad Espa&#241;ola de Nefrolog&#237;a</span> &#40;SEN&#41;
