Brief Description
Indications
Ferric Citrate is indicated in-
The control of serum phosphorus levels in adult patients with chronic kidney disease on dialysis.
The treatment of iron deficiency anemia in adult patients with chronic kidney disease not on dialysis.
Pharmacology
Ferric iron binds dietary phosphate in the Gl tract and precipitates as ferric phosphate. This compound is insoluble and is excreted in the stool. By binding phosphate in the Gl tract and decreasing absorption, ferric iron lowers the phosphate concentration in the serum. Ferric iron is reduced from the ferric to the ferrous form by ferric reductase in the Gl tract. After transport through the enterocytes into the blood, oxidized ferric iron circulates bound to the plasma protein transferrin, and can be incorporated into hemoglobin.
Dosage & Administration
Hyperphosphatemia in Chronic Kidney Disease on Dialysis: Starting dose is 2 tablets orally 3 times per day with meals Adjust dose by 1 to 2 tablets as needed to maintain serum phosphorus at target levels, up to a maximum of 12 tablets daily.
