Interventions
The starting dose of patiromer will be 1 packet/day and may be taken either with food or without food. Based upon the patiromer treatment algorithm patiromer may be increased by 1 packet per day in intervals of at least 1 week (± 3 days). For subjects who become hypokalemic, patiromer may be decreased to a minimum of 0 packets/day. Doses of patiromer will be 0 packets/day, 1 packet/day, 2 packets/day, and 3 packets/day (maximum dose).
The starting dose of placebo will be 1 packet/day and may be taken either with food or without food. Based upon the placebo treatment algorithm placebo may be increased by 1 packet per day in intervals of at least 1 week (± 3 days). For subjects who become hypokalemic, placebo may be decreased to a minimum of 0 packets/day. Doses of placebo will be 0 packets/day, 1 packet/day, 2 packets/day, and 3 packets/day (maximum dose).
