A : A potassium overdose is very dangerous and can cause cardiac arrest. He must be seen immediately. It is not something that can be safely cared for in the home setting.

Potassium overdose : I wonder if you are correct. Often people come to wrong conclusions reading Dr Google. The symptoms of potassium overdose are fatigue, lightheadedness, palpitations, loss of consciousness or death. It would most likely occur if he has kidney disease, or overdosed on potassium. If you are correct, and I question that you are, then he needs to then the emergency NOW.
