Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
The headache is not related to your kidney related problems. You can safely take Sumatriptan, as it is safe in kidney disease. It won’t affect your kidneys. Most probably you are having migraine headache. You can take Tramadol for severe pain, as it is safe in chronic disease and it has got good efficacy.
Wishing you good health.
Thanks.
