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

• Ion-exchange action: This medicine acts as an ion-exchange resin in your digestive system, releasing calcium ions while binding to potassium ions, primarily in the large intestine.

• Potassium binding: It traps excess potassium in the resin complex, preventing it from being absorbed into your bloodstream.

• Elimination process: The bound potassium is then eliminated from your body through faeces, effectively reducing the amount of free potassium in your system.

• Gradual reduction: Through this mechanism, it gradually lowers serum potassium levels over a period of hours to days, helping to restore normal potassium balance.

• Monitor potassium intake: Limit high-potassium foods like bananas, oranges, potatoes, and tomatoes while you are managing hyperkalemia (high blood potassium levels).

• Stay hydrated: Drink adequate water daily as recommended by your doctor to help your kidneys function optimally and support the removal of excess potassium.
