Does anyone know if quercetin for relief of itching caused by histamine intolerance is ok to take with a 55 GFR. I am taking 500mg pill daily which I think is helpful particularly at night. I would like to increase to twice daily to 1g which would be recommended dosage. Concern for affect on kidneys which are stable after being damaged by taking some aleve almost 20 years ago.

@cniebler38 Good question! I looked up quercetin on WebMD and found this information. It is not recommended for use in kidney patients [see under precaution tab, but entire article is worth reading]: https://www.webmd.com/vitamins/ai/ingredientmono-294/quercetin

Histamine intolerance can be an ordeal to work with. Have you figured out what is causing the itching? Environmental, or another medication, perhaps?
