Adverse Reactions
6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in the labeling: • Aluminum Toxicity [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.5 )] • Hypomagnesemia [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.6 )] • Vein Damage and Thrombosis [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.7 )] The following adverse reactions in Table 5 have been reported in clinical studies or postmarketing reports in patients receiving intravenously administered potassium phosphates.
Because some of these reactions were reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure.
