Pharmacokinetics in children

To become available it is necessary for the phosphate group to be hydrolysed from the glycerophosphate molecule. The hydrolysis occurs maximally at a plasma concentration of >0.7 mmol/l. Assuming that all hydrolysis of glycerophosphate takes place in plasma, about 12-15 mmol of sodium glycerophosphate will be hydrolysed each day in individuals with normal serum alkaline phosphatase.

No pharmacokinetical data is available for infants, however with the recommended dosage hyperphosphataemia is unlikely.
