METHOD AND COMPOSITION FOR TREATMENT OF HYPERPHOSPHATEMIA

摘要

Oxy-iron compounds are useful for the treatment and prevention of hyperphosphatemia. Such compounds, particularly those exhibiting high surface area, can be administered orally to bind and inhibit absorption of dietary phosphate, or such compounds can be contacted with the dialysate in a hemodialysis unit to enhance reduction of serum phosphate of patients undergoing hemodialysis.
