Buy PhosLo without prescription

INDICATIONS

PhosLo, containing the active ingredient calcium acetate, is a medication prescribed to help control phosphate levels in individuals with kidney disease, particularly those undergoing dialysis. When the kidneys fail to remove excess phosphate from the blood, high phosphate levels (hyperphosphatemia) can occur, leading to complications such as weak bones and cardiovascular issues. PhosLo works by binding to dietary phosphate in the gastrointestinal tract, preventing its absorption into the bloodstream and helping to maintain balanced phosphate levels.

INSTRUCTIONS

To ensure PhosLo is effective, take it exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider. The medication is usually taken orally with meals, as it works by binding to phosphate present in food. Swallow the tablets or capsules whole with water; do not crush, chew, or break them unless directed by your doctor.

Follow a low-phosphate diet as recommended by your healthcare provider to enhance the effectiveness of PhosLo. Avoid taking other calcium supplements unless instructed, as this may lead to elevated calcium levels.

Adhere strictly to your doctor’s instructions regarding the frequency and timing of doses. If you have any doubts about how to use PhosLo, consult your healthcare provider or pharmacist.

DOSAGE

The dosage of PhosLo depends on your individual needs and the severity of your condition. A typical starting dose for adults is 2 to 3 tablets or capsules taken with each meal. Your doctor may adjust the dose based on your response and blood phosphate levels.

Do not exceed the prescribed dosage, as this may increase the risk of side effects, including high calcium levels. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it is close to your next scheduled dose. Do not take a double dose to make up for the missed one.

STORAGE

Store PhosLo in its original container at room temperature, typically between 20°C and 25°C (68°F and 77°F). Protect the medication from moisture and heat, and keep the container tightly closed when not in use. Ensure it is stored out of reach of children and pets. Do not use PhosLo past its expiration date, and dispose of unused or expired medication following local regulations or as directed by your pharmacist.

SAFETY INFORMATION

Before starting PhosLo, inform your healthcare provider about any existing medical conditions, allergies, or medications you are currently taking. This medication may not be suitable for individuals with:

• High calcium levels (hypercalcemia)
• A history of kidney stones
• Parathyroid gland disorders

PhosLo may interact with other medications, including certain antibiotics, iron supplements, and medications used to treat heart conditions or bone disorders. Take PhosLo at least two hours before or after other medications to avoid potential interactions.

Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their healthcare provider before using PhosLo. Use this medication only if clearly needed and as directed.

SIDE EFFECTS

Like all medications, PhosLo may cause side effects, although not everyone experiences them. Common side effects include:

• Nausea
• Vomiting
• Constipation
• Stomach pain or discomfort
• Loss of appetite

Less common but more serious side effects may include:

• High calcium levels (hypercalcemia), symptoms of which include confusion, fatigue, increased thirst or urination, and muscle weakness.
• Allergic reactions such as rash, itching, swelling, or difficulty breathing.
• Severe stomach pain or signs of a blockage in the digestive tract.

If you experience severe or persistent side effects, stop using PhosLo and seek immediate medical attention. Regular follow-ups and blood tests are essential to monitor your response to the medication and ensure your phosphate and calcium levels remain within a safe range.

By adhering to your prescribed treatment plan and maintaining open communication with your healthcare provider, PhosLo can effectively help manage hyperphosphatemia and improve your overall health and quality of life.
