编辑部医生:我的血钾水平很高,我的医生让我停止服用成功控制血压多年的赖诺普利。高血钾的危险是什么,为什么赖诺普利会引起这个问题?读者:孙先生孙先生:您好。钾是你心脏细胞电活动的重要离子物质,其水平在低于3.4毫克每分升(毫克/分升)或超过5毫克/分升时可导致危及生命的心律失常问题。有些用于高血压、心力衰竭和其他心血管疾病的药物,能影响血钾水平,所以要经常检查。最常见的原因,是肾脏功能衰竭时不能尽快清除通过食物和饮料摄入体内的钾离子。肾脏疾病可能是你的医生检查你的血钾的原 Editorial Department Doctor: My level of potassium is high. My doctor stopped me taking lisinopril, which has been successfully controlled for many years. What is the danger of hyperkalemia? Why does lisinopril cause this? Reader: Mr. Sun Mr. Sun: Hello. Potassium is an important ionic substance in the electrical activity of your heart’s cells and can cause life-threatening arrhythmias at levels below 3.4 mg per deciliter (mg / dL) or over 5 mg / dL. Some drugs used for high blood pressure, heart failure and other cardiovascular diseases can affect serum potassium levels, so check frequently. The most common reason is that potassium deficiency can not be quickly removed from the body through food and drink when kidney failure occurs. Kidney disease may be the reason your doctor checks your potassium levels
