When experiencing pain, patients can often purchase pain relievers at pharmacies, such as paracetamol and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). These medications are usually very effective for quickly reducing pain and inflammation. However, if you have kidney disease, using pain relievers can pose serious health risks, as some pain relievers reduce blood flow to the kidneys and can cause further kidney damage

Ecotrin, generically known as Aspirin, is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug. It is used to reduce fever and relieve mild to moderate pain caused by conditions such as muscle aches, toothaches, the common cold, and headaches. It is also used to reduce pain and swelling in inflammatory arthritis conditions.
