Abstract Kidney involvement represents one of the main targets of the systemic inflammatory process and is underscored by a heterogeneous pathology ranging from amyloidosis to non-amyloid-related damage rooted in inflammasome activation. A thorough approach to monogenic autoinflammatory disorders (AIDs) includes identifying phenotypic patterns, comprehending pathophysiology, and customizing therapy to improve patients' quality of life. In this review, we will discuss some pharmacological aspects focusing on the kidney as a target in AIDs. A special emphasis will be placed on medications used for AIDs cases with renal impairment, as well as drug-induced nephrotoxicity in monogenic AIDs. Understanding the mechanisms of drug-induced nephrotoxicity and applying preventive measures are critical for safely managing monogenic AIDs with renal involvement.
