Terms & Conditions of Program
A generic drug is a copy of the brand-name drug with the same dosage, safety, strength, quality, consumption method, performance, and intended use. Before generics become available on the market, the generic company must prove it has the same active ingredients as the brand-name drug and works in the same way and in the same amount of time in the body.
The only differences between generics and their brand-name counterparts is that generics are less expensive and may look slightly different (eg. different shape or color), as trademarks laws prevent a generic from looking exactly like the brand-name drug.
Generics are less expensive because generic manufacturers don't have to invest large sums of money to develop a drug. When the brand-name patent expires, generic companies can manufacture a copy of the brand-name and sell it at a substantial discount.
Your doctor may prescribe Veltassa to treat hyperkalemia- extra potassium in the bloodstream. Veltassa is classified as a potassium binder specifically designed to remove excess potassium from the body.
Veltassa does not absorb into the body. It contains a calcium-sorbitol counterion that binds to potassium in the gastrointestinal tract. This binding process prevents the potassium from absorbing into the bloodstream. It is then excreted from the body.
The usual starting dosage of Veltassa is 8.4 grams once weekly as needed until the desired blood potassium level is achieved. Your doctor should measure blood levels of potassium to guide therapy.
Taking Veltassa at least 6 hours before or after other oral medications is recommended. The medication should be consumed with food and not be added to heated foods or liquids.
It is important to follow the instructions provided by your doctor and consult your healthcare team before making any changes to the dosage or administration of Veltassa.
The active ingredient in Veltassa is patiromer.
The most common drug-drug interactions with Veltassa can include the following:
Veltassa is not intended for emergency treatment of hyperkalemia. For severe hyperkalemia, call 911.
Before using Veltassa, inform your healthcare provider about any history of gastrointestinal disorders, swallowing difficulties, or other medical conditions that can affect how well this medication works in the gastrointestinal tract.
Gastrointestinal side effects, such as constipation or diarrhea, may occur with Veltassa, and if these symptoms continue or become worse, talk to your doctor.
Common side effects of Veltassa include:
