Potassium Chloride Oral Solution (active ingredient: potassium chloride) is a prescription medication indicated for the following:

  1. Potassium Deficiency: Potassium Chloride Oral Solution is used to prevent and treat potassium deficiency or hypokalemia, which can result from conditions such as prolonged diarrhea, vomiting, or the use of certain diuretics.
  2. Replacement Therapy: It is indicated for the replacement of potassium in patients with conditions that cause increased potassium loss or who are on medications that lead to potassium depletion.

Potassium Chloride Oral Solution belongs to a class of drugs known as electrolyte replacements, which work by replenishing potassium levels in the body to maintain normal cellular function and electrolyte balance.

To prevent stomach upset, the oral solution of Potassium Chloride should be mixed with 4 to 8 ounces of cold water or juice as directed by a doctor. A special measuring device should be used to carefully measure the dose and the entire mixture should be consumed slowly after mixing.

Take each dose after a meal, and a larger amount of liquid may help if there is stomach upset. Take the medication at the same time each day, based on the prescribed dosage. Do not increase the dose or take it more often than directed. If there is no improvement or symptoms of low potassium occur, consult with a doctor.

To gain maximum benefits from Potassium Chloride Oral Solution, take it regularly at the same time(s) each day. The prescribed dosage depends on your medical condition and treatment response. Do not exceed the prescribed dose or take it more often than recommended. In case your medical condition does not improve, or you experience symptoms of low potassium levels in the blood (such as irregular heartbeat, muscle weakness/cramps), consult your doctor.
