What pain medication can i take while i'm on kidney dialysis?

Safe pain meds: The safest is tylenol (acetaminophen). Narcotics used properly are safe. Nsaids like Motrin allege and Aspirin are risky.

Kidney dialysis: Really any type of medication. I would avoid medication like nsaids and those that require liver cytochrome enzymes for metabolism.
