Hi everyone, sorry to go on about Renvela again!  The nurse told me that the powder can be sprinkled on food?????  Instead of taken with water.  I can't find anything that confirms this.  Has anyone done this? 

Thank you.  Have a good day.

Yes, there are Renvela powder packets. Google Renvela powder there's a ton of info. Try drugs.com too.

Thank you Frankswife.  Yes there is a lot of information but all of it says to mix with water.  This adds to my fluid intake.  I can't find anything that says it can be sprinkled on food.  Not sure I would like to taste lemon flavoured vegetables or lemon flavoured beef!!!  Thanks anyway.

Enjoy.

Are you able to take the tablets? I used the tablets not the powder.

Unfortunately jeannea they are too large for me to swallow without choking.  Not pleasant at all which is why I have been prescribed the powder.   

Thanks anyway.  Enjoy your day - Denise

 :waving; :waving; If you can put it in water, why wouldn't you be able to put it on food?  The thing is to find a food that the lemon taste goes with.
Maybe Jello or mashed potatoes, etc.
