Özet
Peritoneal dialysis is one of the renal replacement therapy modality for patients with end-stage renal disease. Hypertension is a common comorbidity in these patients and calcium channel blockers are the most commonly prescribed drugs. Chyloperitoneum is a non-infectious cause of cloudy peritoneal effluent. Lercanidipine is a lipophilic, third generation calcium channel blocker and a widely used antihypertensive agent. Herein, we presented a case of geriatric peritoneal dialysis patient admitted to hospital cloudy effluent after the use of lercanidipine for hypertension. The peritoneal effluent returned to normal after after the cessation of lercanidipine.
