Release form
Pills
Composition
1 tablet contains: active substances: magnesium asparaginate 175 mg; potassium asparaginate 175 mg
Pharmacokinetics
Asparkam - a source of potassium and magnesium ions. Promotes the restoration of electrolyte balance. Potassium has an antiarrhythmic effect, supports normal heart activity. Magnesium is a cofactor of 300 enzyme reactions, promotes the penetration of potassium into the cells.
Indications
Hypokalemia and hypomagnesemia (including on the background caused emesis, diarrhea; saluretikami therapy, GCS and laxatives), accompanied by arrhythmias (including paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia, atrial and ventricular extrasystoles) against digitalis intoxication, heart failure, or myocardial infarction.
Contraindications
Severe renal dysfunction (in acute and chronic kidney failure); insufficient urination; elevated levels of potassium or magnesium in the blood (hyperkalemia, hypermagnesium); atrioventricular block 2-3 degrees with normokalemii; red blood cell damage (hemolysis); adrenal insufficiency; shock condition; acute blood acidosis; dehydration; severe Myastenia gravis (male); treatment, accompanied by delayed excretion of potassium.
Precautionary measures
Application for violations of liver functionWith caution, you should prescribe the drug for violations of the liver.It is not necessary to change the dose in case of renal dysfunction.

Side effects
On the part of the digestive system: possible nausea, vomiting, diarrhea. Since the cardiovascular system: possible violations of the conductivity of the myocardium. From the side of the central nervous system: dizziness.
Overdose
Symptoms: hyperkalemia and hypermagneemia. Treatment: IV calcium chloride; if necessary, hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis.
Interaction with other drugs
Asparkam lowers sensitivity to cardiac glycosides.
special instructions
For rhythm disturbances in combination with AV blockade, it is not recommended to prescribe the drug. The combined use of Asparkam and potassium-sparing diuretics increases the risk of hyperkalemia.
