Avoiding The Severe Gastrointestinal Side Effects Associated with High Dose Potassium and Magnesium Supplementation with Gitelman’s Syndrome Through Utilization of Canagliflozin, Aliskiren and Spironolactone

Gitelman’s Syndrome is an inherited renal tubulopathy that is characterized by renal potassium and magnesium wasting leading to hypokalemia and hypomagnesemia. Previously the only available therapies for the hypokalemia and hypomagnesemia associated with Gitelman’s Syndrome were high dose oral potassium and magnesium supplements. With the availability of the SGLT-2 receptor blocker canagliflozin the need for magnesium replacement therapy can be minimized. Similarly, utilizing blockade of the renin and mineralocorticoid receptors with aliskiren and spironolactone respectively the need for oral potassium replacement can be avoided. By eliminating or reducing the need for oral potassium and magnesium replacement therapy, gastrointestinal problems, particularly diarrhea, can be avoided and the quality of life improved while achieving normal serum potassium and magnesium levels. In addition, by normalizing serum potassium and particularly by correcting serum magnesium levels, the risk of a cardiac arrythmia is also reduced
