Sevelamer Carbonate
Key takeaways
This is the official drug label for sevelamer carbonate, a pill that soaks up phosphorus from food in the gut so less gets into the blood. It is approved for adults and for children age 6 and older who have chronic kidney disease and are on dialysis. Too much phosphorus in the blood is common in kidney failure and is hard on bones and blood vessels. A label is a regulatory document, not a study, so there are no new results here.
