Sodium zirconium cyclosilicate, sold under the brand name Lokelma, is a medication used to treat high blood potassium.[5] Onset of effects occurs in one to six hours.[5] It is taken by mouth.[5]
Common side effects include swelling and low blood potassium.[5] Use is likely safe in pregnancy and breastfeeding.[5] It works by binding potassium ions in the gastrointestinal tract which is then lost in the stool.[5][6]
Sodium zirconium cyclosilicate was approved for medical use in the European Union and in the United States in 2018.[5][4][7] It was developed by AstraZeneca.[5]
