KetoAlfa Tabs. 100`s

Doctors prescribe it to reduce nitrogen waste while preventing protein malnutrition in predialysis and dialysis patients.

KetoAlfa Tablets Ingredients and Usage

KetoAlfa Tablets contain alpha keto analogues of essential amino acids, belonging to the nutritional supplement drug class used in renal disease management. Doctors prescribe them for chronic kidney disease patients following a protein-restricted diet of 40 grams per day or less.

KetoAlfa Tablets support patients whose glomerular filtration rate has dropped below 25 mL per minute, including those in the predialysis stage and those already on dialysis. They are always used alongside dietary protein restriction, never as a standalone therapy.

How Does KetoAlfa Tablets Work?

Alpha keto analogues are nitrogen-free precursor molecules that mimic the structure of essential amino acids. In the body, they undergo transamination, a process that attaches nitrogen from excess urea to convert the keto analogue into a usable amino acid.

This process allows the body to build proteins without adding new dietary nitrogen, which lowers blood urea nitrogen levels and reduces the toxic waste buildup associated with reduced kidney function. KetoAlfa Tablets support muscle maintenance and nutritional status while helping to slow the metabolic burden on failing kidneys.

KetoAlfa Tablets Side Effects

KetoAlfa Tablets are generally well tolerated, with side effects occurring infrequently.

• Elevated blood calcium levels

• Mild digestive discomfort

• Allergic reactions in patients sensitive to any component

Warnings

• KetoAlfa Tablets contain calcium salts and can raise blood calcium levels; use with caution in patients with hypercalcemia or conditions that predispose to elevated calcium.

• Concomitant use with other calcium containing medications may cause or worsen elevated serum calcium; monitor calcium levels periodically during treatment.

• Aluminum hydroxide can interact with KetoAlfa Tablets; a dose adjustment may be necessary if the two are used together.

• Do not chew the tablets; take them during meals to support proper absorption and conversion into amino acids.

• KetoAlfa Tablets must be used together with a doctor-supervised low-protein diet; taking them without dietary protein restriction reduces their intended benefit.

• Consult a doctor before use during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
