Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study Clinical Trial
Calcium acetate versus calcium carbonate in the control of hyperphosphatemia in hemodialysis patients.
Hyperphosphatemia has an important role in the development of bone and mineral abnormalities in end-stage renal disease (ESRD). ⋯ Calcium acetate can be a good alternative to calcium carbonate in the handling of hyperphosphatemia in ESRD patients. When calcium acetate is used, control of hyperphosphatemia can be achieved with a lower administration of calcium, perhaps with a lower risk of hypercalcemia.
