Abstract
Sevelamer hydrochloride dramatically decreased urinary phosphorus excretion with a lesser effect on urinary oxalate. Supersaturation of calcium oxalate did not decrease due to countervailing effects on other constituents including an increase in urinary calcium and a decrease in urinary citrate. Although sevelamer hydrochloride may not be an ideal agent for correcting hyperoxaluria, its potential to reduce calcium phosphate supersaturation merits further investigation.
