The short version

Just 2 companies supply this market — thin enough that a single exit would be felt immediately.

Same drug class

Other molecules FDA puts in Phosphate Binder, with whether each is in shortage right now. Same class is not the same drug — substitution is a clinical decision, and this is a supply picture, not a recommendation.
