Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Diet counseling

If serum phosphorus level exceeds 4.6 mg/dl in the lanthanum carbonate arm in spite of consecutive up-titration of the medical dose or due to patients' intolerance of the medication, patient will be considered a treatment failure and other treatment options will be implemented, including diet counseling or another class of phosphorus binder (in this order of preference).
