is a rare autoimmune disease which affects young adults with a male preponderance and can be triggered at any point in life with a classical clinical triad of rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis, diffuse pulmonary haemorrhage and circulating anti-glomerular basement membrane antibody (anti-GBM antibody). Here we are presenting a case of a young man with hypertension in his early 20s who presented with fatigue, recurrent haemoptysis, breathlessness and decreased urine output without features of infection. He was diagnosed at an early stage of the disease with the help of clinical, serological and radiological findings.

To describe a case of anti-glomerular basement membrane (GBM) nephritis that occurred shortly after initiation of nebulized tobramycin (TOB) therapy using intravenous solution, suggesting an association with the inhalation therapy and the disease onset. With the emergence of antimicrobial resistance, clinical importance of aminoglycosides that usually remain susceptibility against gram-negative organisms is increasingly acknowledged. Despite the growing number of evidence supporting the effectiveness of aminoglycoside inhalation therapy for respiratory tract infections, its clinical application has yet to be widely approved by Japanese health insurance.
