Renagel's mechanism of action is to bind phosphate in the gastrointestinal tract and prevent phosphate from being absorbed. Chemically, Renagel (Sevelamer) is a polyamine - a polymer that is loaded with amines. The purpose of the high density of amine groups on the polymer is to provide a large number of positive charges. The positive charges then interact with the very negatively charged phosphate anions, and thus, the phosphate anions are strongly bound to the polymer cations.
