Examples of medications that decrease urine potassium excretion include: •ACE inhibitors, •ARBs, •NSAIDs, •potassium-sparing diuretics such as:◦spironolactone (Aldactone), ◦triamterene (Dyrenium), and ◦trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (Bactrim).

Even though mild hyperkalemia is common with these medications, severe hyperkalemia usually does not occur unless these medications are given to patients with kidney dysfunction.
