A doctor should be consulted to address the issue of joint drug administration.
Consumer:Talk to your doctor before using sodium polystyrene sulfonate together with aluminum hydroxide. Combining these medications may increase the risk of developing metabolic alkalosis, which is a pH imbalance in the body caused by accumulation of an alkaline substance such as bicarbonate. It may be more likely to occur if you have kidney impairment. Symptoms of metabolic alkalosis may include nausea, vomiting, lightheadedness, tremor, muscle twitching, numbness or tingling, prolonged muscle spasms, slowed breathing, irregular heartbeat, confusion, and stupor. Severe cases may lead to seizure and coma. Do not take any over-the-counter antacids or laxatives without consulting with a healthcare professional first. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.
Professional:GENERALLY AVOID: Systemic alkalosis has been reported when cation-exchange resins were administered orally in combination with nonabsorbable cation-donating preparations such as antacids or laxatives. The mechanism involves binding of the cation to the resin, which prevents the cation from neutralizing bicarbonate ions in the intestine and also interferes with the resin's potassium exchange capability. This interaction may be more likely and more severe in patients with renal dysfunction. Other serious adverse effects have also been reported. One patient with chronic hypocalcemia of renal failure developed alkalosis and grand mal seizure when given sodium polystyrene sulfonate with magnesium hydroxide as a laxative. Intestinal obstruction due to concretions of aluminum hydroxide has occurred in combination with sodium polystyrene sulfonate and morphine.
MANAGEMENT: Nonabsorbable calcium, magnesium, or aluminum preparations such as antacids or laxatives should not be used in patients receiving oral cation-exchange resins. Alternatively, the interaction may be avoided by administering the resin as an enema.
