Classification: Electrolyte
Indication/Uses:
Potassium Chloride (Kaliusaphride) 600mg tablets are used to manage and prevent potassium deficiency, which is an essential electrolyte necessary for various physiological functions. Here are the main indications and uses:
Indications and Uses
Potassium Deficiency:
Supplementation: Used to prevent or treat potassium deficiency (hypokalemia) caused by various conditions, including prolonged diarrhea, vomiting, or certain medications that can lead to potassium loss.
Management of Diuretic Therapy:
Diuretic-Induced Hypokalemia: Often prescribed to patients taking diuretics (especially loop or thiazide diuretics) that increase potassium excretion and lead to low potassium levels.
Treatment of Certain Medical Conditions:
Primary and Secondary Hypokalemia: Used to manage hypokalemia related to conditions such as primary hyperaldosteronism or Cushing's syndrome.
Support for Heart Health:
Cardiac Arrhythmias: Potassium supplementation can be beneficial in managing certain types of cardiac arrhythmias associated with low potassium levels.
Mechanism of Action
Electrolyte Replacement: Potassium chloride provides potassium, which is crucial for maintaining normal cell function, nerve impulses, muscle contractions, and overall electrolyte balance in the body. It helps restore normal potassium levels in the blood and tissues.
Dosage and Administration
Typical Dosage: The usual dosage is 600mg taken orally, but the exact dosage may vary based on the individual's needs and the severity of the potassium deficiency. It is often administered in divided doses throughout the day.
Administration: Tablets should be taken with a full glass of water to help prevent gastrointestinal irritation and to ensure proper absorption.
Precautions
Renal Function: Use with caution in patients with renal impairment, as potassium levels can become dangerously high in such cases.
Cardiac Conditions: Monitor patients with heart conditions closely, as high potassium levels can affect cardiac function.
Avoid Overuse: Excessive potassium intake can lead to hyperkalemia (high potassium levels), which can cause serious health issues such as cardiac arrhythmias.
