Abstract
A case of rifampin-induced acute tubular necrosis requiring hemodialysis in a patient receiving thrice-weekly rifampin with daily dapsone for retreatment of relapsed Hansen's disease is reported. The patient had positive rifampin-dependent antiplatelet antibodies. Case reports of acute renal failure associated with the use of rifampin are summarized. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
