The information given below is the recommended dose for Tamiflu, in an otherwise healthy adult. I'm sorry I couldn't find any information about how the dose needs to change or if you can take Tamiflu if you are having Henmodialysis. It is to be used with caution in kidney disease, and although this answer is perhaps a bit late, please ask your doctor about dose details of medicines just to be sure. You wouldn't want to have any side effects, etc.

The dose of oseltamivir will be different for different patients. Follow your doctor's orders or the directions on the label. The following information includes only the average doses of oseltamivir. If your dose is different, do not change it unless your doctor tells you to do so.
