My nephrologists all say NSAIDs on long term use have a risk for acute kidney failure. They say Tylenol is safe in long term as long as liver is otherwise healthy and you stay under daily dosage limit.
- wnoise 9y agoYeah, Tylenol damages the liver instead.
- arkades 9y agoTylenol definitely accrues liver damage over time. And your nephrologist is correct about NSAIDs. One of their direct effects is to reduce afferent blood flow to the kidney. Every time you take one you’re telling your kidney, “that amount of blood you think you need? Have a little less.” Blood flow to the kidney is extremely carefully regulated - this is never a good thing.
