Excess potassium in the blood stream can result from diseases of the kidneys
or adrenal glands as well as from certain medications. Hyperkalemia can also be
the result of potassium moving out of its usual location within cells into the
bloodstream. Well then, what is the reason and treatment for high potassium in
renal failure?
High potassium and kidney disease
When you have kidney disease, the kidneys aren’t as effective at removing
excess potassium from the blood. Also, some medications may result in excess
potassium retention, rather than it being removed in the urine. High blood
potassium is called hyperkalemia. A high potassium can cause the following:
Nausea
Weakness
Numbness or tingling
Slow pulse
Irregular heartbeat
Heart failure
