1. Dehydration: Severe dehydration can lead to reduced blood flow to the kidneys, causing a decrease in the kidneys' ability to filter waste and toxins from the blood. This can result in AKI.

2. Medications: Certain medications, such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), antibiotics, and contrast agents used in medical imaging procedures, can cause kidney damage and lead to AKI in some individuals.
