Are There Any NSAID S To Treat Arthritis And Pain In A Patient Suffering From Kidney Disease?
I have stage 3 kidney disease. All I remember is my number is 50. Should be 60 or above. I am 65 years old and suffering, a lot right now, with arthritis. I have been advised to not take ibuprofen due to the kidney disease. Is there a NSAID that I can take?

Hello,
Unfortunately not Nsaids are not recommended in renal failure as it can worsen the condition. However, we can definitely recommend many other analgesics. Please see your doctor for the same.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
