DYNULTA TABLET

Introduction:

Dynulta Tablet contains sucroferric oxyhydroxide 2500mg. It is used to control high blood phosphate levels in patients who are on dialysis because of chronic kidney disease. High phosphate levels in the blood can result in stiffening of blood vessels, red eyes, itchy skin, and bone pain. Talk to your physician if you have severe stomach problems, liver disorders, had peritonitis (inflammation of the tissue that lines the inner wall of the abdomen) within the last three months, or had surgery on your stomach or intestines before taking this medicine. 

Dynulta Tablet is not recommended for children under two years. Contact your physician immediately if you have black stools accompanied by breathlessness and increasing tiredness. You need to inform your physician if you have been told that you have an intolerance to some sugars.

Uses of Dynulta Tablet:

How Dynulta Tablet works:
