[QUOTE="lindisfel, post: 1110446, member: 57698"] Some meds can increase potassium. Spironolactone and Eplerenone for eg which are potassium sparing diuretics. Potassium and sodium interact in the body to maintain correct bp and tissue electrolytes. It is usually quite difficult to get the recommended 4700mg of potassium/day. Of course if kidney problems are involved it messes up the whole shooting match. Derek [/QUOTE]
