Solystat Information

Solystat (Sodium Polystyrene Sulfonate) is a medication used to treat hyperkalemia. In this potentially serious medical condition, the level of potassium in the blood is too high. Normal potassium levels are essential for proper nerve and muscle function, including the heart. When potassium levels get too high, it can lead to dangerous and even life-threatening abnormal heart rhythms. Solystat's active ingredient is sodium polystyrene sulfonate (SPS), a medication that belongs to the class of cation-exchange resins. As this cation-exchange resin moves through the digestive tract, it effectively acts like a sponge, swapping its sodium ions for the excess potassium ions present in the colon. The drug, now bound with potassium, is then safely excreted from the body via the feces, helping to lower the overall potassium level in the bloodstream and manage the condition. Although not a fast-acting treatment, it provides a steady reduction in potassium and serves as a supportive measure alongside other treatments for hyperkalemia. Its usefulness lies in lowering the body's overall potassium burden, mainly when the kidneys alone cannot effectively excrete it.
