Discussions tagged “phospate binder”

Calphron Tablets are a crucial medication for many people with kidney disease, especially those on dialysis. By binding to the phosphate in food, it helps prevent the body from absorbing too much, thereby maintaining bone health. However, like any medication, it comes with potential side effects ranging from mild to severe. I've been on Calphron for a year now, and while it's helped manage my phosphate levels, I've experienced some ups and downs. Has anyone else had a similar experience? I'd love to share tips and advice. What are your thoughts on this medication?
