  • Chronic kidney disease
  • Prevention of potassium-related heart problems

Contraindications

If you are allergic to calcium polystyrene sulphonate or any ingredient of this medicine, do not use it. Avoid this oral powder if you have paralytic ileus (bowel obstruction), severe constipation, or Hirschsprung's disease. Tell your doctor if you have heart disease, low blood calcium, or are taking other medicines that affect potassium.

  • Nausea
  • Vomiting
  • Abdominal discomfort

Precautions and Warnings

Pregnancy

Pregnancy

Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant. This medicine has limited use in pregnancy and is generally used only if the benefit outweighs the risk. Your doctor will decide if it is safe for you.

Breast Feeding

Breast Feeding

It is unlikely that this medicine passes into breast milk as it acts locally in the intestines. Breastfeeding is generally considered safe while taking this medicine. Consult your doctor for confirmation.

Driving

Driving

This medicine is unlikely to affect your ability to drive or operate machinery.

Alcohol

Alcohol

Alcohol does not directly interact with this medicine, but avoid excessive alcohol as it may affect kidney function.

Directions for Use

Mix the prescribed amount of oral powder with a small amount of water to form a smooth suspension, or mix with a fruit drink (such as orange juice). Do not mix with whole milk as calcium interferes with absorption. Drink the mixture slowly. Take it as often as your doctor directs, or as per medical advice. It is important to drink plenty of water and maintain adequate fluid intake to prevent constipation.

Storage and disposal

Store this oral powder in a cool, dry place away from sunlight and moisture. Keep out of reach of children. Do not use after the expiry date. The powder should be mixed fresh each time before use.

Quick Tips

  • Drink plenty of water and other fluids to prevent constipation.
  • Follow a low-potassium diet as advised by your doctor.
  • Have regular blood tests to monitor potassium levels.
  • Report signs of constipation to your doctor for additional management.
  • Take with juice for better palatability.
  • Do not miss doses as potassium control is important for heart health.

Dosage

Overdose

Overdose may cause severe constipation or potassium levels that drop too low (hypokalaemia), leading to muscle weakness, cardiac arrhythmias, or fatigue. If you think you have taken too much of this medicine, contact your doctor immediately or visit the nearest hospital.

Missed a Dose

If you missed any dose of medicine, take it as soon as you remember. If it's time for your next dose, then skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dose schedule. Do not take a double dose of medicine to compensate for the missed one.

How does this medicine work?

Calcium polystyrene sulphonate is a resin that exchanges calcium ions for potassium ions in the intestines. This removes excess potassium from the body through stool, helping to lower potassium levels in the blood.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

Some medicines can affect the way this oral powder works or increase the risk of hyperkalaemia. Tell your doctor about all medicines you are taking. In particular, inform your doctor if you are taking potassium-sparing diuretics, blood pressure medicines (especially ACE inhibitors), or anti-inflammatory medicines like NSAIDs, as they can increase potassium levels.

Interactions with food items

Avoid high-potassium foods such as bananas, oranges, tomatoes, potatoes, dried fruits, nuts, and salt substitutes. Your doctor or dietitian will provide a detailed low-potassium diet plan.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Your doctor will recommend the frequency based on your kidney disease stage and potassium levels. Initially, tests may be frequent (weekly or bi-weekly), then may be spaced out if levels are stable.
No, do not stop taking this medicine without consulting your doctor. Potassium levels can rise again quickly if treatment is stopped. Your doctor will advise when and if you can discontinue the medicine.
Avoid bananas, oranges, dried fruits, nuts, potatoes, tomatoes, spinach, and salt substitutes. Your dietitian will provide a comprehensive list of foods to limit and healthy alternatives.
