Dose reduction is not required in patients with mild to moderate renal impairment. Dosage adjustment is needed in patients with severe renal impairment, and those with end-stage renal disease undergoing hemodialysis. Varenicline has been shown to be dialyzed in patients with end-stage renal disease. Monitoring of renal function is recommended.
