ABSTRACT
We report two pediatric cases of acute tubulointerstitial nephritis [ATIN]. The first case is a 13 year-old boy, with one month history of vomiting and fever treated with Bromure de butylhyoscine [Buscopan] and Sulpiride. He developed oliguric acute renal failure. ATIN was diagnosed by renal biopsy. He needed dialysis for 3 weeks and was treated successfully with steroids for 8 months. The second case is a 7 year-old boy, treated with Ceftriaxone for febrile diarrhaoe. Laboratory studies showed an eosinophilia and eosinophiluria. Renal histopathology revealed features of drug induced ATIN. The patient was treated with steroids and didn't require dialysis
