I would evaluate calcium based alternatives
A minute dose in each meal for our kidney compromised feline. We use a total of 1/8 teaspoon per day.
This product does seem to cause some constipation in some pets.

Actually Tasteless
From UndisclosedComments about Phos-Bind 35g PowderMy Magneto was born with small kidneys so the doctor recommended this to help reduce the amount of phosphate build up. I was worried he would turn his nose at it because of the taste but I've mixed it with wet food and he gobbles it right up. I've even dusted it on dry food in a pinch and he didn't mind.-

Great for ckd cat
From UndisclosedComments about Phos-Bind 35g PowderMy cat has ckd but recently had started gagging at the smell of his kidney food. All I can get him to eat is regular, but fancy wet food, so I've been adding this to the non renal diet food. It helps to keep him from absorbing so much phosphorus, which keeps him from getting toxic and miserable. This is a great product, wish my vet would've known about it and suggested it.-

Great price
From UndisclosedComments about Phos-Bind 200g PowderThis product has helped my cats quality of life. She was disgnosed with kidney disease a year ago, and her numbers have stayed stable since then. I give it to her in her food, either wet or dry. She doesn't have any issue with the flavor or texture. I am glad I can find the big pack here, and at a very good price. Cheaper than in other places, and shipped to Puerto Rico! Thank you.-

Q & A

Hi, is this product made from a gel that has been turned into a powder? Apparently, that's the type of aluminum hydroxide recommended by my vet. Thank you?
-
According to the manufacturer, Phos-Bind is made from a dried gel and converted into a fine powder.

There seems to be incorrect and/or confusing information in the product description. 35 g powder contains 250 g of Aluminum Hydroxide : how can 35g of powder contain 250 g of AlOH? [It should be '250 mg AlOH' based on the product pictures]. Reducing the potential for confusion will be a good thing. For the following, maybe the "scoops" are different sizes? If that's the case, add in parentheses the scoop size, e.g. 90 (1/4 tsp) scoops. Phos-Bind 35g container = 90 scoops Phos-Bind 200g container = 200 scoops?
-
Can this be mixed with a pro-biotic paste? I use the Proviable paste and want to make sure it doesn't contain anything that would adhere to or react with the Phos-Bind.?
-
According to the manufacturer, the kaolin and pectin in Proviable paste could delay absorption of some medications, so the administration of the paste should be separated by 1-2 hours from other medications.

I am confused by the dosage information for this product. Previously you answered, " A scoop is included with the Phos-Bind powder. 1 Leveled scoop of powder contains 500mg of Aluminum hydroxide, and the manufacturer recommends giving 100mg/kg daily with meals." So for a 100mg do I give a 5th of a scoop and is a 100mg given at each meal? Does it matter how much the dog weighs??
-
Phos-Bind comes in two different size containers, 35 grams and 200 grams, each with their own scoop. For the 35 gram container, the scoop is 1.25 cc (¼ tsp) and measures 250 mg/scoop. The 200 gram container has a scoop size of 2.5 cc (½ tsp) and measures 500 mg/scoop. The labeled directions for Phos-Bind is 100 mg/kg daily with meals. The manufacturer recommends that the total daily dose should be divided up and given with each meal. The weight of the animal is important, because the labeled dosage of Phos-Bind is based on weight: 100 mg is given per 1 kilogram (2.2 lbs) of body weight. The dosage of this product will also vary based on the individual needs of your pet, and it is recommended that your pet’s blood values be checked periodically to ensure the correct dosage. Your veterinarian can help determine the proper dosage and provide you with the directions to administer Phos-Bind to your pet.

I have heard on a kidney failure FB group that medication should not. E given within 2 hours of Phos Bind. Is that correct? This makes it near impossible to give meds & binder in food before going to work. TY?
-
Some medications interact with the Phos-Bind, it is recommended that Phos-Bind is used under the supervision of your veterinarian. Please inform your veterinarian of all medications including over-the-counter products your pet is taking to help prevent interactions. For best absorption of medications, it is recommended to separate those administered orally from Phos-Bind by at least 2 hours.

Can I mix the total amount in my cats wet food and then refrigerate the left over for later meals? Will the ingredients still work if it is mixed earlier in the day??
-
According to the manufacturer, it is OK to mix Phos-Bind into the food and refrigerate for use later. The manufacturer warns not to heat the food with the PhosBind already mixed in. If the food is to be heated later, add the PhosBind just before serving.
