To evaluate tenofovir-related nephropathy, we quantified calculated glomerular filtration rates (GFR) and renal tubular function in 46 tenofovir-treated patients and 25 without tenofovir. We also analysed patients who stopped tenofovir for drug-related nephrotoxicity at our clinic. Tenofovir use combined with non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors, but not with protease inhibitors, resulted in a significant increase in calculated GFR. Tenofovir use was associated with significantly lower phosphatemia and a marginally increased fractional excretion of uric acid, but no other signs of tubulopathy.
