Abstract

Toxic nephropathies are one of the important and common cause of renal injury mechanisms. Although they are generally reversible when diagnosed at early stage, sometimes result in chronic kidney disease (CKD).Toxic nepropathies are caused by drugs, diagnosing agents, chemicals and environmental agents. We here report a patient had impaired liver and renal functıons due to exposure to lavandula stoechas and melissa tea which has not been in the literature yet.
