Calcium Resonium Powder 15gm contains calcium polystyrene sulphonate (15 Gm), which works on the body as follows:

• Cation Exchange Mechanism: This medicine acts as a cation exchange resin that swaps calcium ions for potassium ions in your intestines, particularly in the colon where potassium concentration is highest.

• Potassium Binding: It binds to excess potassium in your gastrointestinal tract, preventing it from being absorbed into your bloodstream and instead allowing it to be eliminated from your body.

• Electrolyte Normalisation: By removing excess potassium from your body, it helps restore normal serum potassium levels, reducing the dangerous effects of hyperkalemia (high blood potassium).

• Non-Systemic Action: The medicine works locally in your intestines without being absorbed into your bloodstream, making it suitable for patients with kidney problems who cannot eliminate potassium normally.

• Store Calcium Resonium Powder 15gm at room temperature.

• Keep in a dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture.

• Ensure proper hygiene while handling the powder.

• Keep out of reach of children and pets.

• Do not use after the expiry date printed on the packaging.

• Dispose of unused or expired sachets according to local regulations.

• Limit foods high in potassium such as bananas, oranges, potatoes, and tomatoes while taking Calcium Resonium Powder 15gm, as these may counteract the medicine's effect on lowering blood potassium levels.

• Stay well-hydrated unless your doctor advises fluid restriction, as proper hydration helps support kidney function when managing hyperkalemia (high blood potassium).
