SEVCAR 400

Sevcar 400mg tablet contains an active ingredient known as Sevelamer. This medication falls under the category of phosphate binders. It is utilized to control hyperphosphatemia (elevated blood phosphate levels) in adult patients receiving dialysis (either hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis) and those with chronic kidney disease who exhibit high serum phosphorus levels. It should be administered alongside other treatments, such as calcium supplements and vitamin D, to avert bone disease. Elevated blood phosphorus levels can lead to calcification, resulting in hard deposits that stiffen blood vessels and impede blood flow.

Do not take Sevcar 400mg tablet if you are allergic to Sevelamer or any of its components. Refrain from using this medication if you have low phosphate levels or a bowel obstruction. Prior to taking this medicine, inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, suspect you might be pregnant, or are breastfeeding. Before initiating treatment, make sure to tell your doctor if you have difficulty swallowing or if your stomach and intestines have issues with food movement.

Additionally, notify your doctor if you currently have bowel inflammation or have undergone significant stomach or bowel surgery. Sevcar 400mg tablet is not advised for children under six years of age due to insufficient studies regarding its safety and efficacy in that demographic. If your doctor has indicated a sugar intolerance, please consult them before using this medication, as it contains lactose.
