Ketoalfa Tablet (Alpha-Keto Analogue Tablets)

Ketoalfa Tablet contains alpha-keto acid analogues, which are specially designed compounds that resemble essential amino acids but do not contain nitrogen. These analogues play an important role in the dietary management of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and certain liver-related conditions when used under medical supervision.

How Ketoalfa Tablet Works

Alpha-keto analogues compete with natural amino acids for absorption in the intestine. Once absorbed, they are converted into essential amino acids in the body without increasing nitrogen load. This helps reduce the formation of toxic nitrogenous waste products such as urea and ammonia, which are harmful in patients with impaired kidney or liver function.

By lowering ammonia production, Ketoalfa Tablet is particularly helpful in conditions where ammonia buildup can worsen symptoms, such as hepatic encephalopathy. It also supports protein nutrition while minimizing metabolic stress on compromised organs.
