Hi all
Having a blonde moment here. Have got a patient using Glucosamine 1500mg as the 2KCL salt. Has now presented with a prescription for perindopril (which can cause hyperkalaemia). Can any one who has got their chemistry/maths hats on tell me how much potassium they are gaining per tablet? Can anyone with their biology hats on tell me if this amount is likely to be significant with regards to potential hyperkalaemia?
Cheers
