LOPHOS Tablet – Phosphate Binder for Kidney Health
LOPHOS Tablet contains Sevelamer Carbonate, a non-calcium, non-metal-based phosphate binder used primarily in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) on dialysis. It helps control high blood phosphate levels (hyperphosphatemia) by preventing phosphate absorption from food in the digestive tract.
Key Benefits:
-
Controls serum phosphate levels in CKD patients

-
Does not contain calcium or aluminum, reducing the risk of tissue calcification
-
Suitable for long-term management of hyperphosphatemia in dialysis patients
Directions for Use:
Take LOPHOS as prescribed by your nephrologist, usually with meals to maximize phosphate binding.
Precautions:
-
Monitor serum phosphate and calcium levels regularly
-
May cause nausea, bloating, or constipation

Inform your doctor about all other medications to avoid interactions

Not suitable for patients with bowel obstruction or swallowing difficulties
