Renvela (Sevelamer Carbonate)

Renvela is a kidney disease treatment medication available by prescription and used for hyperphosphatemia treatment to improve outcomes for patients and their kidney dialysis. The active ingredient in the medication - Sevelamer Carbonate - lowers blood phosphorous levels by binding to phosphorous in the blood and then having it removed from the body through excretory organs.
