The present invention relates to a preventive and/or therapeutic agent for hyperkalemia, and a potassium excretion promoter containing EP4 agonist. Since EP4 agonist promotes potassium excretion, it is useful as a preventive and/or therapeutic agent for hyperkalemia. In addition, if selective EP4 agonist uses, it is a preventive and/or therapeutic agent for hyperkalemia without side effects. Further, if EP4 agonist is used, it is useful as improving agent for various symptoms (e.g. paresthesia, error of perception, weakness, myoparalysis, nausea, vomit, abdominal pain, diarrhea, arrhythmia, atrioventricular block, ventricular fibrillation, atrial fibrillation, cardiac arrest, asphyxia and/or dyspnoea etc.).
本发明涉及一种高钾血症的预防和/或治疗剂,以及一种含有 EP4 激动剂的钾排泄促进剂。由于 EP4 激动剂能促进钾排泄,因此可用作高钾血症的预防和/或治疗剂。此外,如果使用选择性 EP4 激动剂,它是一种无副作用的高钾血症预防和/或治疗剂。此外,如果使用 EP4 激动剂,还可作为改善各种症状(如麻痹、知觉错误、虚弱、肌麻痹、恶心、呕吐、腹痛、腹泻、心律失常、房室传导阻滞、心室颤动、心房颤动、心脏骤停、窒息和/或呼吸困难等)的药物。
