Lokelma is a medication used for the treatment of hyperkalemia, which is characterized by elevated levels of potassium in the blood. It is an insoluble, non-absorbed sodium zirconium silicate formulated as a powder for oral suspension that works as a highly selective potassium binder.
Lokelma acts directly in the intestines and is not absorbed into the bloodstream. Lokelma is indicated for the treatment of hyperkalemia in adults and should not be used as an emergency treatment for life-threatening hyperkalemia.
Lokelma comes as a powder for oral suspension to be taken by mouth as directed by a doctor. Patients taking Lokelma should take other medications at least 2 hours before or 2 hours after taking Lokelma. The initial dose may be taken 3 times a day for the first 48 hours and then decreased to once daily or once every other day.
For patients undergoing dialysis, the medication should only be taken on non-dialysis days. To prevent any potential interactions, other medications should be taken at least 2 hours before or after taking Lokelma. Follow your doctor’s instructions carefully, and your dosage will be determined based on your medical condition and response to treatment, with blood tests ordered to monitor your progress.
Lokelma (Sodium Zirconium Cyclosilicate)) is available in the following forms and strengths:
Lokelma is taken orally as a powder that is mixed with water. The dosage and timing of Lokelma will be determined by your healthcare provider based on your individual needs.
Lokelma can start working about an hour after it is taken and continues to work for up to 24 hours.
Lokelma can be taken with or without food. However, it should not be taken with other medication. Your doctor will tell you how to take Lokelma.
Lokelma works by binding to potassium in the body, which helps remove excess potassium from the blood.
