摘要

This invention relates to a pharmaceutical preparation comprising nicotinamide in combination with phosphate lowering agents (phosphate binders) for the treatment of elevated serum phosphate levels resulting particularly from kidney failure, especially in patients undergoing hemodialysis treatment, as well as to a pharmaceutical composition comprising a pharmaceutically effective amount of a combination of nicotinamide with phosphate binders together with pharmaceutically acceptable carriers.
