What is Potassium Chloride?

Alimentary Tract and Metabolism

Active Ingredients: Potassium Chloride

Potassium Chloride Injection is used to restore severely low levels of potassium in the body. Hypokalemia (low levels of potassium) may be caused by many reasons, such as prolonged illnesses with diarrhea or vomiting, hormone disorders like hyperaldosteronism, or certain medications like diuretics.

Potassium Chloride is an essential mineral. It helps to maintain fluids and electrolytes and regulates sodium metabolism and the acid-base balance. Potassium is also necessary for heart function.
