Introduction of Renvela 800 mg Tablet

• Renvela 800 mg Tablet is used to treat high levels of phosphorus (phosphate) in the blood of patients who are on dialysis because they have severe kidney disease. Dialysis eliminates some phosphate from the blood, but it isn't easy to eliminate enough to keep phosphate levels in balance. Lowering blood phosphate levels can help keep bones strong, prevent dangerous mineral buildup in the body, and reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke caused by high phosphate levels.

  Renvela 800 mg works by binding to the phosphate in the food you eat to pass it out of your body. Renvela 800 mg Tablet can cause side effects like nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, constipation, and diarrhoea.
