| dc.description.abstract | Hyperkalemia is a potentially life-threatening condition frequently encountered in clinical practice, particularly among patients with chronic kidney disease, heart failure, diabetes, and hypertension and those undergoing treatment with renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system inhibitors (RAASi). The management of chronic and acute hyperkalemia is complex and requires timely intervention to prevent severe complications such as cardiac arrhythmias and sudden death. Traditional therapeutic approaches to chronic hyperkalemia, including dietary potassium restriction, use of diuretics, and administration of cation-exchange resins like sodium polystyrene sulfonate, often suffer from limitations like gastrointestinal side effects, variable efficacy, delayed onset of action, and RAASi treatment discontinuation. In recent years, the development of new potassium binders, specifically patiromer and sodium zirconium cyclosilicate (SZC), has revolutionized the management of hyperkalemia. Patiromer, a non-absorbed polymer, binds potassium in the gastrointestinal tract in exchange for calcium, thus facilitating its excretion. SZC operates by exchanging sodium and hydrogen ions for potassium, leading to efficient potassium removal. Both agents have demonstrated rapid and sustained reductions in serum potassium levels, coupled with favorable safety and tolerability profiles, in multiple clinical trials. This review article, authored by a multidisciplinary group of Portuguese experts in hyperkalemia management, provides an in-depth analysis of the efficacy and safety of current therapeutic strategies and highlights the clinical potential of new potassium binders. The introduction of patiromer and SZC offers significant advantages over traditional therapies, providing effective and better-tolerated options for patients. The review highlights the role of these novel agents in contemporary hyperkalemia management and calls for ongoing research to further refine treatment protocols and improve patient outcomes. | en |
