Summary

Elevated phosphorus levels are a common problem in dialysis patients. However, it is associated with an increase in death and hospitalizations. Current treatment is comprised of dietary modifications and phosphorus binders - though this is often not enough for many of our patients. Our trial investigates the use of niacinamide, a form of vitamin B, in decreasing serum phosphorus levels.
