Toxicity can occur from drugs that require elimination through urinary excrement in patients with which of the following conditions?

Congestive Heart Failure
Certain Musculoskeletal conditions
Renal Failure
Asperger's Syndrome

Explanation

Answer: C - Renal failure can cause toxicity in patients from drugs that require elimination from urinary excrement. Since the drug must pass through the kidneys, any renal deficiency can slow the rate of removal from the body. This can lead to an accumulation of the drug, and ultimately, toxicity.
