Velphoro chewable tablets contain sucroferric oxyhydroxide, an effective phosphate binder for adults and children aged 9+ with chronic kidney disease on dialysis. When chewed with meals, it binds dietary phosphorus in the gut, preventing absorption and lowering blood phosphorus levels. The tablet is brown, chewable, and embossed “PA 500.” Velphoro is non-systemic with minimal iron absorption, and is adjusted based on serum phosphorus monitoring to reach target levels. Common side effects include dark stools or diarrhea, and drug interactions may necessitate timing separation from medications like levothyroxine.,Please Note that product description, color, ingredients, package and other information maybe different from the original pack kindly check the product for more accurate details.

Chew or crush 1 tablet (500 mg) three times daily with meals. Adjust by one tablet per day as needed based on serum phosphorus. Maximum: 6 tablets (3 g) per day. For ages 9–11: start with 2 tablets per day with meals.

Sucroferric oxyhydroxide equivalent to 500 mg iron per tablet
