The following interaction applies only if you are taking potassium in a solid formulation (i.E., tablet or capsule swallowed whole):

Talk to your doctor before using potassium oral tablets or capsules together with brompheniramine. Depending on the dose of brompheniramine and your overall physical health, combining these medications may increase the irritant effects of potassium on your stomach and upper intestine. This can rarely result in ulcers, bleeding, and other gastrointestinal injury.

Alternatively, a liquid formulation of potassium may be considered when used in combination with brompheniramine.
