Renal Effect of NSAIDs Inhibition of Prostaglandin Synthesis

 - Renal disease, Cardiovascular disease -> Decreased renal blood flow
 - Cirrhosis, Nephrosis, Heart failure, Diuretics -> Decreased blood volume

-> Increased vasoconstrictors: Angiotensin II, Catecholamines, Vasopressin

NSAlDs inhibit prostaglandin synthesis, leaving actions of Vasoconstrictors unopposed.
