About Relypsa
Relypsa: A Leading Name in Iron Deficiency, Nephrology and Cardio-Renal Therapies
Relypsa is a subsidiary of Vifor Pharma, a leading pharmaceutical company that aims to provide innovative solutions for patients suffering from severe and chronic diseases. Relypsa specializes in the development of therapies for iron deficiency, nephrology and cardio-renal conditions.
Iron deficiency is a common condition that affects millions of people worldwide. It can lead to anemia, fatigue, weakness and other health problems. Relypsa has developed a unique therapy called Veltassa® that helps patients with hyperkalemia (high potassium levels) caused by kidney disease or heart failure. Veltassa® is the first FDA-approved oral potassium binder that can be taken with or without food.
Nephrology is another area where Relypsa has made significant contributions. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects millions of people worldwide and can lead to serious complications such as cardiovascular disease, anemia and bone disorders. Relypsa's therapy called Patiromer FOS helps CKD patients manage their hyperkalemia by binding excess potassium in the gut.
Cardio-renal conditions are also a major focus area for Relypsa. Heart failure affects millions of people worldwide and can lead to hospitalization or even death if left untreated. Relypsa's therapy called Veltassa® has been shown to reduce the risk of hospitalization due to heart failure in patients with hyperkalemia.
At Relypsa, patient safety is always our top priority. We conduct rigorous clinical trials to ensure that our therapies are safe and effective for use in real-world settings. Our team consists of experienced scientists, researchers and clinicians who work tirelessly towards developing new therapies that can improve patient outcomes.
