Thank you for your fast response. I have looked at both of these web sites along with several others. None of them seem entirely certain CKD doesn't leave much wriggle room if the effect is bad so needless to say I am hyper cautious.

have you asked your GP or pharmacist - suspect pharmacist might be better bet as possibly talking about interactions.
