The purpose of this study is to determine whether once-daily dosing of patiromer will reduce the frequency of hyperkalemic episodes in ESRD (end stage renal disease) study participants who receive conventional hemodialysis (HD). The study objective is to determine if patiromer administered orally once a day with breakfast or lunch will reduce episodes of hyperkalemia in ESRD study participants who receive thrice-weekly HD.
