Sevelamer potassium?

See the DrugPatentWatch profile for Sevelamer

There isn’t a “sevelamer potassium” product. Sevelamer is a phosphate binder used in CKD and comes in two salt forms:
- Sevelamer hydrochloride (brand Renagel)
- Sevelamer carbonate (brand Renvela)

It does not contain potassium and is not a potassium binder.

If you’re asking because you need a potassium binder for hyperkalemia, sevelamer isn’t that. Other potassium binders include patiromer (Veltassa), sodium zirconium cyclosilicate (Lokelma), and older sodium polystyrene sulfonate (Kayexalate).

If you want, tell me what you’re trying to treat (phosphate control vs. potassium management) and I can give more details on dosing, side effects, and drug interactions.
