Potassium Chloride Sustained-Release Tablets	600mg	100Tablets/box

• Potassium Chloride Sustained-Release Tablets contain potassium chloride, a salt compound that provides potassium supplementation. The sustained-release formulation ensures a gradual release of potassium into the bloodstream, maintaining serum potassium levels over an extended period.

Indications:
 

Potassium Chloride Sustained-Release Tablets are indicated for the following conditions:

• Hypokalemia: They are used to treat and prevent low potassium levels in the blood, which can occur due to various factors such as diuretic use, gastrointestinal losses, or certain medical conditions.
• Potassium depletion: They help replenish potassium stores in individuals with potassium depletion due to inadequate dietary intake or excessive potassium loss.

Administration:
 

Potassium Chloride Sustained-Release Tablets are typically taken orally with a full glass of water, preferably with meals to minimize gastrointestinal irritation. The dosage and frequency of administration depend on the severity of hypokalemia and the individual's potassium requirements. It is important to swallow the tablets whole and not crush or chew them to avoid irritation of the gastrointestinal tract.

Safety and Considerations:

While generally safe, Potassium Chloride Sustained-Release Tablets may cause side effects such as:

• Gastrointestinal discomfort: Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and diarrhea, particularly with high doses or prolonged use.
• Hyperkalemia: Excessive potassium supplementation can lead to hyperkalemia (high potassium levels), which may cause symptoms such as muscle weakness, irregular heartbeat, or cardiac arrest.
• Ulceration or irritation: Direct contact of the tablets with the esophagus or stomach may cause ulceration or irritation, especially if the tablets are not swallowed whole.
