Alfasteril Tablet 10

Alfasteril Tablet 10 is used alongside a low protein diet to support people with chronic kidney disease, and it helps by supplying essential nutrients while reducing the build up of waste products that the kidneys must clear.

Uses of Alfasteril Tablet 10 are:

• Chronic kidney disease: Supports people with chronic kidney disease who follow a low protein diet.
• Kidney protection: May help slow the progression of kidney damage by reducing waste build up.
• Nutritional support: Helps maintain nutritional balance.

Follow these instructions while taking Alfasteril Tablet 10:

• Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water.

• Take this medicine about 30 minutes before meals.

• Do not crush, chew or break the tablet.

• Take it at the same time each day for best results.

Alfasteril Tablet 10 is taken orally.

Alfasteril Tablet 10 contains multiple active ingredients called alpha ketoanalogues that work together to support kidney health:

• Calcium 3 Methyl 2 Oxo Valerate (67 mg): Serves as a nitrogen-free alternative to isoleucine, supporting essential protein synthesis while reducing strain on compromised kidneys.

• Calcium 4 Methyl 2 Oxo Valerate (101 mg): Works as a keto-analogue of leucine, facilitating protein metabolism without producing additional nitrogen waste.

• Calcium 2 Oxo 3 Phenylpropionate (68 mg): Acts as a nitrogen-free equivalent of phenylalanine, reducing the nitrogen waste products that damaged kidneys find difficult to eliminate.

• Calcium 3 Methyl 2 Oxo Butyrate (86 mg): Functions as a keto-analogue of valine, helping to maintain protein synthesis without adding extra nitrogen burden on the kidneys.

• Calcium DL2 Hydroxy 4 Butyrate (59 mg): Helps reduce metabolic acidosis, a condition where there is too much acid in the body due to impaired kidney function.

• L-Lysine (105 mg): Ensures adequate protein synthesis and maintains good nutritional status without overburdening the kidneys.

• L-Threonine (53 mg): Contributes to protein synthesis and immune function while supporting overall nutritional requirements.

• L-Tryptophan (23 mg): Helps maintain protein balance and supports various bodily functions without adding excessive nitrogen burden.

• L-Histidine (38 mg): Supports various metabolic processes and helps maintain the body's nitrogen balance.

• L-Tyrosine (30 mg): Supports protein synthesis and various metabolic functions whilst maintaining nutritional status in CKD patients.

• Store Alfasteril Tablet 10 in a cool, dry place at room temperature below 30°C.

• Keep away from moisture, heat and direct sunlight.

• Store out of reach of children.

• Discard any unused tablets three months after opening the strip.

• Do not use after the expiry date printed on the package.

• Follow a low protein diet as recommended by your doctor to reduce strain on your kidneys. This helps the keto-analogues in Alfasteril Tablet 10 work more effectively to preserve kidney function.

• Monitor your fluid intake carefully. Proper hydration is important for chronic kidney disease, but the exact amount should be personalised to your specific kidney condition.
