Description
Indications
Potassium chloride serves as a mineral supplement and is administered to mitigate or forestall a potassium deficiency in the bloodstream. Adequate levels of potassium in the bloodstream play a crucial role in maintaining cellular, renal, cardiac, muscular, and neural functioning. Generally, a balanced diet suffices to meet the body’s potassium requirements.
However, certain medical conditions, such as hyperaldosteronism, or the use of diuretics, can reduce potassium levels in the body.
Uses and Dosage
In order to prevent gastric upset, prepare your prescribed dose of potassium by mixing it with a glass of cold water or juice ranging from 4 to 8 ounces (120 to 240 milliliters), as directed by your physician.
When using the liquid form of this medication, utilize a designated measuring instrument or spoon to accurately measure the prescribed dose. Avoid using a household spoon, as it may lead to an incorrect dosage. After combining the medication and liquid, drink the entire mixture slowly.
Consume each dose after a meal. In the event of stomach upset, mixing your dose with a larger volume of liquid may alleviate the symptoms.
To obtain the maximum benefits from this medication, adhere to the prescribed dosage schedule regularly. To facilitate recall, take it at the same time(s) every day. The dosage is established based on your medical condition and response to treatment. Do not augment your dosage or take it more frequently than prescribed.
If your condition does not improve or if you experience symptoms of potassium insufficiency in the bloodstream such as muscle weakness/cramps or an irregular heartbeat, notify your physician.

- upset stomach
