Antivirals
Many antivirals depend on renal clearance, including acyclovir, famciclovir, valganciclovir and ganciclovir. Side effects of accumulation include confusion, dizziness, hallucinations, and convulsions, which are reversible and dose-related. Acyclovir, Famciclovir, Valganciclovir and Ganciclovir need dose adjustments, usually at eGFR < 50 mL/minute/1.73 m².
