Veltassa (patiromer) is a medication used to lower high potassium levels in the blood (hyperkalemia). In clinical studies, Veltassa typically lowers serum potassium by about 0.5 to 1.0 mEq/L within the first week of treatment. The exact reduction may vary depending on the individual's baseline potassium level and dose prescribed.
