Kidney failure often causes hyperphosphataemia, i.e. an increase in phosphorus in the blood, which in turn causes a decrease in calcium (hypocalcaemia). The body needs to maintain a balance of phosphorus and calcium in the blood. When phosphate levels rise, bone diseases such as osteoporosis of the teeth or gums can occur. A long-established and effective drug, Renagel, which is widely used in United Kingdom, can help prevent this. It, like a circus trickster, will help to maintain the phosphate balance in your body. We recommend that you buy this medication at an incredibly favourable price from our online pharmacy. You do not need to present a prescription from your doctor, because we trust our customers and we are ready to ship your order without a prescription to any city in UK.

What is Renagel

Renagel, whose active ingredient is selendamer, works by binding to phosphates in food, which are eliminated from the body through the intestines. This helps to prevent an increase in phosphate levels in the blood, which can lead to various complications in patients with kidney failure.

Indications For Use

The product is used for the treatment and prevention of kidney failure in dialysis patients to help control blood phosphorus levels. It may be prescribed by the physician as part of the complex treatment of patients with renal failure and as a preventive measure against bone abnormalities in the background of nephropathologies.

Contraindications for use

Renagel has a number of contraindications, such as reduced plasma phosphate levels, oesophageal stricture, intestinal obstruction and individual intolerance to the ingredients of the medicinal product. During pregnancy and lactation, the drug may only be taken under the constant supervision of a doctor and only if the expected therapeutic effect is greater than the possible harm.

Side effects

In some cases, the medicine may cause adverse reactions in the body, such as diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting, constipation, gas, abdominal pain, chest pain, digestive disorders, weakness, low blood pressure, dizziness and headache. Allergic reactions such as hives, laryngeal swelling, itching and breathing problems may also occur. If serious side effects occur, medical attention should be sought immediately.

Methods of Use and Dosage

The tablets should be taken orally with meals, swallowing them whole and drinking the required amount of water.
It is important to remember that Renagel should only be taken as prescribed by a doctor and in the recommended doses. During treatment, phosphatemia levels should be checked regularly, once every 14 to 21 days (until a stable value of 1.76 mmol/l (5.5 mg/dl) or lower is reached).
The single therapeutic dose ranges from 800 to 4000 mg. The maximum daily dose is 7 g.
