Kionex binds itself to potassium in your digestive tract. This helps prevent your body from absorbing too much potassium.

Kionex is used to treat high levels of potassium in the blood, also called hyperkalemia.

Kionex works differently from other medicines because it passes into your intestines without being absorbed into your blood stream.
