Phoscut 400 Tablet is used to treat increased phosphate levels in the blood, particularly in patients with chronic kidney disease who are undergoing dialysis. It contains sevelamer, a phosphate binder that reduces phosphate absorption from the intestine.
This medicine could indirectly help in reducing the risk of bone disorders and ectopic calcification, which are complications of ESRD. Keeping phosphorus levels under control also potentially contributes to decreasing parathyroid hormone levels, thus managing secondary hyperparathyroidism.
