How are they doing, now?

Those are possible side effects, but renal failure is kind of iffy, that doesn't happen in most people that take it. Since they have kidney disease, is it possibly they already had kidney failure?

The FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, seizures, bruising, and diarrhea.
