Calcium polystyrene sulfonate
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Calcium polystyrene sulfonate (Poly(styrenesulfonic acid) calcium salt) is an orally active potassium-lowering agent. Calcium polystyrene sulfonate binds potassium in the distal colon in exchange for Ca2+. Calcium polystyrene sulfonate can be used for the research of hyperkalemia in chronic kidney disease.
