摘要：Recently, the concept of psychonephrology was developed and has been recognized as a field of study that focuses on nephrology and mental health fields, such as psychiatry and psychosomatic medicine. Indeed, patients with chronic kidney disease frequently suffer from mental problems as the disease stage progresses. Most psychotropic drugs are hepatically metabolized, but some are unmetabolized and eliminated renally. However, renal disease may affect the pharmacokinetics of many psychotropic drugs, as the decreased renal function not only delays the urinary excretion of the drug and its metabolites but also alters various pharmacokinetic factors, such as protein-binding, enterohepatic circulation, and activity of drug-metabolizing enzymes. Therefore, when prescribing drug therapy for patients with both renal disease and mental issues, we should consider reducing the dosage of psychotropic drugs that are eliminated mainly via the kidney and also carefully monitor the blood drug concentrations of other drugs with a high extrarenal clearance, such as those that are largely metabolized in the liver. Furthermore, we should carefully consider the dialyzability of each psychotropic drug, as the dialyzability impacts the drug clearance in patients with end-stage renal failure undergoing dialysis. Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) may be a useful tool for adjusting the dosage of psychotropic drugs appropriately in patients with renal disease. We herein review the pharmacokinetic considerations for psychotropic drugs in patients with renal disease as well as those undergoing dialysis and offer new insight concerning TDM in the field of psychonephrology.
