New pill could free dialysis patients from punishing diets
NCT ID NCT06858280
Summary
This study is testing if a medication called patiromer can allow people on long-term dialysis to relax their very strict low-potassium diets. It will involve 40 patients to see if taking patiromer, compared to a placebo, safely lets them eat more normal foods without their blood potassium getting too high. The main goal is to see if this improves their quality of life and nutrition while keeping them safe.
