The sodium content is approximately 4.1 mmol (94.3 mg) per gram of the drug. SOLYSTAT is a cation exchange resin prepared in the sodium phase. Exchange capacity: approximately 3 mmol of potassium per gram _in vitro_ and approximately 1 mmol of potassium per gram _in vivo_. SOLYSTAT can be administered either orally or as an enema. SOLYSTAT ORAL SUSPENSION Each 60 mL of brown, cherry-flavored suspension contains 15 g of sodium polystyrene sulfonate USP and 14.1 g of sorbitol. Also contains methylparaben and propylparaben as preservatives. The sodium content is 65 mmol (1.5 g)/60 mL. Exchange capacity: approximately 3 mmol of potassium per 4 mL (per gram of resin) of suspension _in vitro_ and approximately 1 mmol _in vivo_. ACTION Sodium polystyrene sulfonate is not absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. As the resin passes through the gastrointestinal tract, the resin removes the potassium ions by exchanging them for sodium ions. Most of this action occurs in the large intestine, which excretes potassium ions to a greater degree than does the small intestine. Potassium exchange also occurs in the colon following retention of the resin, when administered as an enema. The efficiency of this process is limited and unpredictable. Baca dokumen lengkapnya
