Can Morphine and dye can cause more damage to the kidneys, having a allergy towards the dye and could this cause to go to the ER?
Patient: My aunt had went into the hospital with chest pains and was diagnosed with kidney failure. Was put on dialysis and had other test ran with dye. Would this cause her to go in the ICU. With kidney failure I thought that the morphine and dye would hurt the kidneys more. And she had also had a allergic reaction to the dye. She's 73 years old. Doctor: Hi,I had read your query and according to me this is the most common age for acute renal failure or shut down of kidney due to any allergic reaction and dye is a most common agent for hypersensitivity reaction. Morphine does not damage the kidneys.
