About Revlamer 800 Tablet 10's

Revlamer 800 Tablet 10's belongs to a group of medications called phosphate binder (which decreases the level of phosphate in the body). It is primarily used to control high phosphate levels in the body (hyperphosphataemia) in adult patients on dialysis (a blood clearance technique), patients undergoing hemodialysis (using a blood filtration machine), and patients with chronic kidney disease. It is also used for the treatment of bone disease.

Revlamer 800 Tablet 10's contains sevelamer that works by binding phosphate in the gastrointestinal tract and decreasing absorption. It effectively reduces excess phosphate levels in the blood, prevents the unsafe build-up of phosphate in your body, helps keep your bones strong, and decreases the risk of heart disease and strokes.

Take Revlamer 800 Tablet 10's exactly as directed by your doctor. The most common side effects of Revlamer 800 Tablet 10's are vomiting, upper abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhoea, stomach ache, indigestion, and flatulence. However, if the side effects persist, contact your doctor.

The use of Revlamer 800 Tablet 10's is restricted in persons with a known history of allergic to any of the ingredients present in this medicine, have low levels of phosphate in their blood, and have a bowel obstruction. Revlamer 800 Tablet 10's contains lactose (milk sugar). If you have an intolerance to some sugars, contact your doctor before taking Revlamer 800 Tablet 10's. Tell your doctor if you are facing swallowing problems, motility (movement) in your stomach and bowel, being sick frequently, active inflammation of the bowel,  have undergone major surgery on your stomach or bowel, or have serious inflammatory bowel disease. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, please consult your doctor before taking Revlamer 800 Tablet 10's.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Hyperphosphatemia: Hyperphosphatemia is defined as an increased phosphate level in the blood. This condition is often a complication of chronic kidney disease. Phosphate is an important electrolyte. It strengthens your bones and teeth and produces energy.  When phosphate levels increase in the blood due to kidney impairment (the kidney does not remove extra phosphate out of the body), this can cause muscle problems and increase the risk of weak bones, heart attacks, and strokes. It is more common in people with chronic kidney disease and people on dialysis. Symptoms may include itchy skin, red eyes, bone pain, and fractures.
