Drug Interactions
Tacrolimus may cause hyperkalemia or increase the serum concentration of potassium which should be taken into account when combined with potassium salts.
ACE inhibitors may produce some increase in potassium serum levels by inhibiting aldosterone secretion. Potassium supplements should be given to patients concomitantly taking ACE inhibitors only with close monitoring of potassium levels.
Storage
Action
Potassium depletion may occur when the loss through renal excretion and/or the loss from the gastrointestinal tract exceeds the potassium intake.
Pharmacokinetics: The bioavailability of potassium from Potassium Chloride (Kalium Durules) is similar to that of a standard potassium chloride solution. The Tmax for excretion occurs after 1-1.5 hours after intake of Potassium Chloride (Kalium Durules).
