Potassium Chloride in Sodium Chloride Disease Interactions
There are 2 disease interactions with Potassium Chloride in Sodium Chloride (lvp solution with potassium).
Sodium salts (applies to Potassium Chloride in Sodium Chloride) sodium/water imbalance
Major Potential Hazard, Moderate plausibility. Applicable conditions: Fluid Retention, Congestive Heart Failure
Sodium chloride can induce sodium and water retention and result in hypernatremia, hypokalemia, edema and aggravation of congestive heart failure. Therapy with sodium- containing agents should be administered with extreme caution, if at all, in patients with congestive heart failure, severe renal insufficiency, and in clinical states where there is edema with sodium retention. Clinical monitoring of acid/base balance and electrolytes prior to, during, a following completion of therapy with sodium- containing agents is recommended.
LVP solution with potassium (applies to Potassium Chloride in Sodium Chloride) hyperkalemia
Moderate Potential Hazard, Moderate plausibility. Applicable conditions: Renal Dysfunction
Solutions containing potassium ions should be used with great care, if at all, in patients with hyperkalemia, severe renal failure, and in conditions in which potassium retention is present.
