Used For:

Lophos Tablets are typically used to manage hyperphosphatemia (high phosphate levels) in patients with chronic kidney disease, especially those on dialysis. The tablets help reduce phosphate absorption in the digestive tract, maintaining healthy phosphate levels and preventing complications like bone disorders and cardiovascular issues.

Side Effects:

• Gastrointestinal issues (e.g., nausea, vomiting, constipation)
• Abdominal discomfort or bloating
• Hypercalcemia (if the tablet contains calcium), which may cause confusion, fatigue, or irregular heartbeats
• Allergic reactions (rare), such as rash, itching, or swelling

Precautions:

• Follow the dosage instructions provided by your healthcare provider.
• Inform your doctor if you have a history of hypercalcemia, gastrointestinal disorders, or kidney issues.
• Regular monitoring of phosphate and calcium levels may be necessary during treatment.
• Let your healthcare provider know if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking other medications, especially calcium or phosphate supplements.
• Avoid taking the tablet with meals high in phosphate (e.g., dairy products) to maximize effectiveness.
• Discontinue use and seek medical advice if you experience severe side effects or allergic reactions.
• Keep out of reach of children.
