  • Title: Hypocalcemic tetany due to sodium phosphate ingestion in acute renal failure.
    Author: Zipser RD, Bischel MD, Abrams DE.
    Journal: Nephron; 1975; 14(5):378-81. PubMed ID: 1134613.
    Abstract:
    The ingestion of a sodium phosphate laxative preparation (Phosphosoda, Fleed) in a patient who had acute renal failure resulted in hypocalcemic tetany primarily due to severe hyperphosphatemia. Hypernatremia and a marked anion gap were present and attributable in part to the sodium phosphate ingestion of this preparation in the presence of renal failure.
