About this product

Overview

Renvela 800mg tablet contains Sevelamer Carbonate as its active ingredient. It belongs to the class of medications known as phosphate binders, primarily used for the management of hyperphosphatemia in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) on dialysis. Sevelamer Carbonate acts locally in the gastrointestinal tract, where it binds to dietary phosphate, preventing its absorption and thereby reducing serum phosphate levels. This helps in the control of hyperphosphatemia, which is commonly associated with CKD.

Key Features

  • Phosphate Binding Action: Sevelamer Carbonate binds to phosphate in the gastrointestinal tract, forming an insoluble complex that is excreted in the feces, thereby reducing phosphate absorption and serum phosphate levels.
  • Dialysis Patients: Renvela 800mg tablet is indicated for use in patients with CKD on dialysis to manage elevated phosphate levels, which can contribute to complications such as mineral and bone disorders.
  • Powder for Suspension: Renvela is also available in powder form for suspension, providing flexibility in dosing for patients who may have difficulty swallowing tablets.

Uses

Renvela 800mg tablet is prescribed for:

  • Hyperphosphatemia: Management of elevated phosphate levels in patients with CKD on dialysis.

Directions for Use

  • Renvela 800mg tablet should be taken orally with meals.
  • Swallow the tablet whole with a sufficient amount of water; do not crush, chew, or break it.
  • The dosage of Renvela may vary based on serum phosphate levels and individual patient requirements. Follow your healthcare provider’s instructions carefully.
  • Ensure adequate hydration during treatment with Renvela to prevent constipation and ensure proper drug efficacy.

Precautions

  • Monitor serum phosphate levels regularly and adjust the dosage of Renvela as needed to maintain phosphate levels within the target range.
  • Use caution in patients with a history of gastrointestinal disorders, including bowel obstruction, dysphagia, or severe constipation.
  • Renvela may interfere with the absorption of certain medications; administer other oral medications at least one hour before or three hours after taking Renvela to avoid potential drug interactions.
  • Inform your healthcare provider about any existing medical conditions, allergies, or medications you are currently taking before starting treatment with Renvela.
