Headache — grab any painkiller? With kidney disease, check which kind first.

  1. 1Common NSAIDs: ibuprofen, diclofenac, naproxen, mefenamic acid, celecoxib, and aspirin at pain-relief doses. Many combination cold remedies contain them too.
  2. 2KDIGO guidance: avoid NSAIDs when eGFR is below 30; no prolonged use when eGFR is below 60.
  3. 3The "triple whammy": an NSAID plus an ACE inhibitor/ARB plus a diuretic clearly raises the risk of acute kidney injury.
  4. 4Risk is higher when you are ill and dehydrated (vomiting, diarrhoea, fever) — ask your doctor which medicines to pause on sick days.
  5. 5For occasional pain, acetaminophen (paracetamol) within the recommended dose is usually the safer choice — but still ask first; patches and gels are absorbed too.

Before buying any painkiller, ask the pharmacist one question: "I have kidney disease — is this safe for me?"
