Enemax Uses, Dosage, Side Effects, Food Interaction and all others data.

Phosphoric Acid is a colorless, odorless phosphorus-containing inorganic acid. Enemax is a sequestering agent which binds many divalent cations, including Fe++, Cu++, Ca++, and Mg++.

Transport of phosphate from the gut lumen is an active, energy-dependent process that is modified by several factors. ... Vitamin D stimulates phosphate absorption, an effect reported to precede its action on calcium ion transport.

Uses

Enemax is an ingredient used for electrolyte replenishment and total parenteral nutrition (TPN) therapy, and for the relief of upset stomach associated with nausea.

Enemax is used in dentistry and orthodontics as an etching solution, to clean and roughen the surfaces of teeth where dental appliances or fillings will be placed.

Enemax is also used to associated treatment for these conditions: Total parenteral nutrition therapy

How Enemax works

Phosphate supplementation of the diet of rodents has been shown to lead to reduction in the incidence of dental caries and different phosphates have different powers in reducing the cariogenic potential of the carbohydrates in a diet. Phosphate supplements seem to exert their cariostatic effect on the tooth surface either directly during eating or by excretion in the saliva.

Food Interaction

No interactions found.

Volume of Distribution

Absorbed phosphoric acid is distributed widely in the body as phosphate. Increased serum phosphate concentrations have been reported rarely after phosphoric acid ingestion

Elimination Route

Ortho phosphate is absorbed from, and to a limited extent secreted into, the gastrointestinal tract.

Half Life

In infants with normal renal function the serum half-life of phosphate following single oral or rectal overdose is 5-11 hours

Clearance

Absorbed phosphate is filtered at the glomerulus and partially reabsorbed, with phosphate clearance 80 per cent of creatinine clearance.

Elimination Route

In adults, about two thirds of the ingested phosphate is absorbed, and that which is absorbed is almost entirely excreted into the urine.
