Calcimimetics and other simple pharmacological interventions do not work in dialysis: what can we do about it?

Authors: Palmer SC, Strippoli GF
Abstract
In this commentary, we explore the use of simple pharmaceutical interventions in dialysis patients and highlight the relative lack of efficacy for this approach to improve clinical outcomes. We suggest the development and evaluation of more complex and context-dependent strategies that might improve the aspects of dialysis most relevant to both patients and health systems.
