FOSRENOL (lanthanum carbonate) is an oral phosphate binder approved in 2004 for managing serum phosphate levels in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients. It works by binding dietary phosphate in the gastrointestinal tract, preventing absorption and reducing serum phosphate and calcium-phosphate product levels. Administered as a chewable tablet, it addresses a critical mineral metabolism complication in dialysis populations.
