Moderate Use of Analgesics - Not Associated With Kidney Dysfunction

According to a new study, occasional use of aspirin, acetaminophen, or other pain relievers for everyday aches and pains is not associated with kidney dysfunction among healthy men.

Some earlier studies have suggested that regul...
