Kaochlor  Information
This medication is used to treat low potassium levels in the blood. It is also used to prevent low blood potassium that can occur with many conditions (e.g., treatment with water pills (diuretics), liver cirrhosis with water buildup in the abdomen, certain kinds of ongoing diarrhea). Low potassium levels can cause problems with the heart, kidneys, muscles, nerves, cell growth, and the way the body uses food. Keeping blood potassium at a normal level can prevent these problems.

Kaochlor  Directions
Dissolve the prescribed number of tablets in at least 3 ounces (90 milliliters) of cold water per tablet. Make sure the tablets are fully dissolved, then sip the mixture slowly over 5 to 10 minutes. Take this medication with or without food, usually 2-4 times daily or as directed by your doctor. Since potassium can cause stomach upset, it is best to eat a small meal before taking the mixture.
