Overview

Fosrenol 500mg Tablet is a prescription-only medicine (POM) presented as a tablet, with Lanthanum carbonate 500mg as its active ingredient content.

This page is limited to product, safety and handling information, in line with Malaysian rules on prescription medicine information for the public. Your prescriber or pharmacist is the right source for anything beyond that, together with the leaflet inside the pack.

Through DoctorOnCall, this product is supplied after an online consultation with a licensed doctor and a valid prescription, and it is checked by a registered pharmacist before dispensing. Take it exactly as prescribed, and speak to your doctor before stopping, changing the dose, or starting any other medicine alongside it.

Directions for Use

Fosrenol 500mg Tablet tablets must be chewed thoroughly until completely broken up – do not swallow them whole – and taken with or immediately after meals, since lanthanum carbonate needs to be present in the stomach at the same time as your food to bind dietary phosphate effectively.

Dosage

The dose of Fosrenol 500mg Tablet is individualised by your doctor based on your blood phosphate level, and is usually taken with each meal. Your doctor will periodically check your blood phosphate and may adjust your dose accordingly. Do not change your dose without medical advice.

Storage Instructions

Store below 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children.

Side Effects

  • Nausea or vomiting
  • Abdominal pain
  • Constipation
  • Diarrhea
  • Headache
  • Itching or rash
  • Muscle pain
  • Loss of appetite

Contraindications

  • Known hypersensitivity to lanthanum carbonate or any ingredient in this product
  • Bowel obstruction, ileus, or acute peptic ulcer disease
  • Not recommended in severe gastrointestinal disorders that may worsen with a phosphate binder

Drug / Food Interactions

  • Antibiotics such as tetracyclines and fluoroquinolones may have reduced absorption if taken at the same time – separate dosing is usually advised
  • Levothyroxine (thyroid hormone) absorption may be reduced – take at a different time from lanthanum carbonate
  • Medicines that depend on stomach acid or gut pH for absorption may be affected – tell your doctor about all medicines you take
  • Taking this medicine without food reduces its effectiveness, as it needs to bind phosphate from a meal

Quick Tips

  • Always chew tablets thoroughly – never swallow whole
  • Take every dose with or immediately after a meal, not on an empty stomach
  • Do not skip doses, as this reduces phosphate control
  • Keep regular blood test appointments to monitor your phosphate level
  • Space other oral medicines apart from this product if your doctor advises, to avoid absorption interactions

Ingredients / Active Ingredients

  • Lanthanum carbonate 500mg
