    AbstractSepsis and septic shock are common cause of hospitalisation in intensive care unit. Acute kidney injury is an accompanying manifestation of sepsis/septic shock leading to worsening of morbidity and also mortality and requiring use of intermittent or continual renal replacement therapy.

Despite therapeutic drug monitoring of both antibiotic agents vankomycin and gentamicin the treatment still rises many questions about the convenient use in septic patients due to their nephrotoxicity.
