Is Percogesic Safe To Take While Having Kidney Problems?
Hi, I am trying to determine if Percogesic is safe for me to take. I have only one kidney that is functioning at 22%, had a heart attack and have a heart blockage that if stented would kill my kidney. I know that I cannot take Aleve, etc. I have been taking Tylenol 500 mg for arthritis pain but not getting any relief. I thank you for your answer.

Is Percogesic Safe To Take While Having Kidney Problems?
Hello, It is better to don t take because it may contain adrenergic agonists which may cause severe hypertension and deteriorate present problems. So please consult your physician/nephrologist they will advise Tramadol or alternate drug for you. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
