Lokelma
Lokelma, also known by its generic name sodium zirconium cyclosilicate, is a potassium binder used for the treatment of hyperkalemia, which is an elevated level of potassium in the blood. This medication works by binding to potassium in the gastrointestinal tract, thereby reducing the overall potassium levels in the body.
How is this medication used?
Lokelma should be taken exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider. It is typically administered orally, and the dosage can vary based on the severity of the hyperkalemia and the response of the patient to the treatment.
What are the possible side effects?
Possible side effects include edema, high blood pressure, and gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, constipation, or diarrhea. Some patients may also experience hypokalemia, which is lower than normal levels of potassium in the blood.
What are the potential interactions?
Lokelma may interact with other medications, potentially altering their effects or leading to adverse reactions. It's important to inform your healthcare provider about all medications, supplements, and herbs you are taking before starting Lokelma. Special caution should be taken with other potassium-altering drugs to avoid significant shifts in potassium levels.
