Dialysis vitamins: Ask your father to ask his nephrologist for nephrovite vitamins. These are commonly used for dialysis patients and contain the following: biotin 0.3mg-calcium pantothenic acid 10mg-folic acid 1mg-niacinamide 20mg-vitamin b1 1.5mg-vitamin b2 1.7mg-vitamin b6 10mg-vitamin B12 0.006mg-vitamin c 60mg. Therer are no fat soluble vitamins such as a, d and e in nephrovite tabs.

Baby aspirin: A nephrologist (kidney doctor) can answer the question specific to dialysis patients. From a cardiovascular (heart disease) standpoint, many people may forget the importance of a baby Aspirin (81mg) to protect against future heart attacks. Few multivitamins are rigorously studied in scientific trials to prove harm or benefit, so you may wish to switch to an aspirin, which has proven benefit.
