Sevelamer Hydrochloride
Used For
Dialysis
How it works
It contains sevelamer, a non-absorbed phosphate binding poly (allylamine hydrochloride) polymer, free of metal and calcium. It contains multiple amines separated by one carbon from the polymer backbone. These amines become partially protonated in the intestine and interact with phosphate molecules through ionic and hydrogen bonding. By binding phosphate in the gastrointestinal tract, sevelamer lowers the phosphate concentration in the serum.

Peritonitis is a known complication in patients receiving peritoneal dialysis (PD) and in a clinical study with sevelamer, a number of peritonitis cases were reported. Therefore, patients on PD should be closely monitored to ensure the reliable use of appropriate aseptic technique with the prompt recognition and management of any signs and symptoms associated with peritonitis.
Warning 3
Cases of serious inflammatory disorders of different parts of the gastrointestinal tract (including serious complications such as haemorrhage, perforation, ulceration, necrosis, colitis and colonic/caecal mass) associated with the presence of sevelamer crystals have been reported . Inflammatory disorders may resolve upon sevelamer discontinuation. Sevelamer hydrochloride treatment should be re-evaluated in patients who develop severe gastrointestinal symptoms .
