Calcium acetate is a calcium preparation used to control serum phosphorus levels.
MFDS ingredient code M071253
Calcium acetate is a compound formed by the combination of calcium and acetic acid, used as a source of calcium in the body. It is primarily included in medications to lower serum phosphorus levels and is used to manage phosphorus excess in patients with impaired kidney function.
Calcium acetate reduces the absorption of phosphorus by forming insoluble compounds with phosphorus in the intestine. This results in lower serum phosphorus levels, aiding in phosphorus regulation for patients with renal disease.
Approved uses differ by product. Check each product's information for its actual use.
Unlike other calcium salts, calcium acetate has a superior ability to combine with phosphorus in the gastrointestinal tract due to the presence of acetate ions. It also provides calcium while simultaneously binding phosphorus, making it suitable for patients with renal disease.
