[Clinical aspect of recent progress in phosphate metabolism. Management of hyperphosphagtemia]

Abstract

In spite of various cause of hyperphosphatemia, there is a limited number of modality which include restriction of phosphate intake, phosphate binder, extra cellular fluid expansion and blood purification. Each therapy has certain deficit but combination of those may get preferable consequence. Now various new phosphate binders and the inhibitors of sodium-dependent phosphate transporters are being developed. Those agents might promise a better outcome of the treatment of hyperphosphatemia.
