Drug Name		Enflurane				Neomycin
Mechanism		Nephrotoxicity				Nephrotoxicity
Key Mechanism Factor 1
		Factor Name		Nephrotoxicity
		Factor Description		The combination of drugs that can induce nephrotoxicity may increase the risk of kidney injury. When kidney injury occurs, the inability to remove excess urine and waste from the body can lead to high levels of urea nitrogen, creatinine, and electrolytes (such as potassium and magnesium) in the blood.
