About potassium chloride

What is potassium chloride?
Potassium chloride is an electrolyte replacement medication used to prevent or treat low levels of potassium in the blood, a condition called hypokalemia. Potassium is a vital mineral that supports nerve transmission, muscle contraction, heart rhythm regulation, and cellular function. While potassium is naturally found in many foods, certain health conditions and medications can cause significant potassium loss, which requires medical correction.

Potassium chloride is available in oral and intravenous forms, though oral tablets, capsules, powders, and oral solution. . It’s often prescribed when patients lose potassium due to diuretic use (like furosemide or hydrochlorothiazide), prolonged vomiting or diarrhea, and certain  kidney diseases.Correcting low potassium is essential because severe hypokalemia can lead to muscle weakness, fatigue and potentially life-threatening arrhythmias, Treatment is tailored based on lab results and underlying causes.
