WHAT FOSRENOL IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Fosrenol is used to lower the phosphate level in the blood of adult
patients with chronic kidney
disease.
Patients who have kidneys that do not work properly are not able to
control the level of phosphate in
the blood. The amount of phosphate in the blood then rises (your
doctor may call this
hyperphosphataemia).
Fosrenol is a medicine which reduces the body's absorption of
phosphate from food by binding with it
in your digestive tract. Phosphate which has bonded to Fosrenol cannot
be absorbed through the
intestinal wall.
