What is Fosrenol?

Fosrenol contains the prescription medicine lanthanum. Lanthanum stops your body from absorbing phosphate and allows it to be removed from your body. Fosrenol is used to reduce the level of phosphate in patients with kidney disease. High phosphate levels in your body can make it more difficult for you to absorb calcium. This can cause conditions such as osteoporosis (brittle bones).

Fosrenol is used for the treatment of end-stage renal disease (ESRD), where it binds to phosphate. Treatment also includes reducing phosphate in your diet and dialysis to remove phosphate and reduce high phosphate levels in the body.

Fosrenol active ingredients

Fosrenol binds to phosphate forming lanthanum phosphate, which is not soluble in water. This complex passes through the gastrointestinal tract without being absorbed into your body. This causes a reduction in both serum phosphate and calcium phosphate in the body.

Fosrenol should not be used if you have a bowel obstruction or severe constipation. Tell your doctor if you have a stomach ulcer, ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease, diabetes, or any type of bowel obstruction, or a history of colon cancer or intestinal surgery.

You should completely chew the chewable tablet before swallowing it. It should be taken with food or straight away after eating. If you also take thyroid replacement medication or antacids, you should take them at least 2 hours before or after taking Fosrenol. Thyroid medication and antacids should not be taken at the same time as lanthanum carbonate.
