A member asked:
I have hypokpp. trying to find out times to take k & sr or liquid that will help before trying diamox (acetazolamide). any suggestions? i've been doing 120meq.

Hypokalemic p.p.: Hypokalemic periodic paralysis is a genetic disorder. Basic rx includes salt restriction, alcohol avoidance, carb restrictions, and high K intake. Med literature informs that K supplements do not prevent attacks, but do abort acute attacks. Still, keeping serum K at 5 is recommended. Spread K tabs (potassium) to 4x/day. Diamox is effective rx. K supplements are essential w Diamox because K is lost in urine.
