Chống chỉ định
Hyperkalaemia or conditions predisposing to hyperkalaemia (e.g. uncontrolled diabetes mellitus, acute dehydration, adrenal insufficiency, extensive tissue breakdown, strenuous physical exercise in unconditioned patients); delayed gastric emptying time, oesophageal compression, intestinal obstruction or stricture; peptic ulcer disease, active UTI. Renal insufficiency (GFR <0.7 mL/kg/min) or chronic renal failure. Patients taking anticholinergic agents. Concomitant use with K-sparing diuretics.
Thận trọng
Patient with CV disease (e.g. heart failure, cardiac arrhythmia). Severe hepatic impairment. Pregnancy and lactation.
Obtain serum electrolytes (K, Na, chloride), bicarbonate, serum creatinine, and CBC every 4 months; urinary citrate and/or pH measurements during initiation or dose change and every 4 months thereafter. Monitor ECG periodically.
Quá liều
Symptoms: Hyperkalaemia which is usually asymptomatic and may be manifested only by increased serum K levels and ECG changes (e.g. QT-interval prolongation, peaking of T-wave, loss of P-wave, depression of S-T segment); metabolic alkalosis; late manifestations include muscle paralysis and CV collapse from cardiac arrest. Management: Closely monitor for arrhythmias and changes in electrolytes. Eliminate K-containing medications, agents with K-sparing properties (e.g. K-sparing diuretics, ARBs, ACE inhibitors, NSAIDs), and foods with high K content (e.g. almonds, milk, salmon, spinach, tuna). May administer IV Ca gluconate if the patient is at no risk or low risk of developing digitalis toxicity. Administer IV dextrose 10% solution containing 10-20 units of crystalline insulin per 1,000 mL at a rate of 300-500 mL/hour. Acidosis may be corrected with IV Na bicarbonate. Haemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis may be performed.
Tương tác
May increase the risk of hyperkalaemia with ACE inhibitors, ARBs, aliskiren, and NSAIDs. Increased gastrointestinal irritation with agents that slow gastrointestinal transit time (e.g. anticholinergics). Potentially Fatal: Risk of severe hyperkalaemia with K-sparing diuretics (e.g. triamterene, amiloride, spironolactone).
Tác dụng
Description: Mechanism of Action: Potassium citrate acts as an alkalinising agent. It is metabolised to bicarbonate, producing an alkaline load that elevates urinary pH and urinary citrate by augmenting citrate clearance without altering ultrafilterable serum citrate. These changes reduce the potential crystallisation of stone-forming salts (Ca oxalate, Ca phosphate, and uric acid) in the urine. Pharmacokinetics: Metabolism: Metabolised in the liver to bicarbonate.
