Acetaminophen : Acetaminophen is used to treat short-term pain. The drug is safe for people with kidney diseases. Opioids: When acetaminophen is not effective for pain relief, opioid analgesics may be used instead. Tramadol (Ultram) is often prescribed for people with idiopathic polycystic kidney disease. Antiepileptic drugs: These drugs, also known as anticonvulsants, help ease chronic pain caused by nerve damage. Examples include gabapentin (Neurontin) and pregabalin (Lyrica).
