Drug Interactions
The simultaneous administration of medications containing calcium (eg, acetolyte) may lead to pathological increases of the serum calcium level or intensification. As the uremia symptoms improve with Ketosteril, a possible administration of aluminium hydroxide should be reduced. Pay attention to a reduction of serum phosphate. In order not to interfere with absorption, do not take drugs together with Ketosteril that form sparingly soluble compounds with calcium (eg, tetracyclines).
Storage
Store at temperatures not exceeding 30°C.
