Nephrologist,  's  Response
Hello

Thanks for the query

If you have a stage 3 renal failure I strongly advice you to restrict fluids, drinking more water will not flush out medicines from your body.
Tramadol is fairly safe drug for kidney disease patients with good pain killer properties. Pleaae approach your primary care physician for a prescription

I hope I was of help
