Liver Disease/Kidney disease

My Dad has cirrosis (cirrhosis) and had a TIPS procedure done a few years ago.  He also has arthritis, and stage 3 kidney disease, he is 73 years old and doing fine.  My question is can he take 800 mgs of motrin for his arthritis, is it safe for his liver and kidney?  If not is there anything he could take to help the stiffness and discomfort?

Thanks

That's the kind of question you should ask his liver doctor,  not only if the medicine he is taking is harmful, but what medicine he should take.

You should make sure all doctors know what the others have prescribed for your dad.
Good luck!
