When do you take potassium binders?

Because potassium binders can potentially interfere/interact with other medications, it’s best to check with your doctor to see if there’s a specific time or desired time to take your potassium binder. Generally, potassium binders are recommended to be taken at the same time every day. However, if your doctor did not recommend for you to take the medication daily, please reach out to your doctor to find out what his/her recommendations would be for you.
