4.2 Therapeutic Uses

The oral dose of 10% potassium chloride elixir (Kay Ciel) required to reverse thiazide-induced hypokalemia was determined in 15 patients with essential hypertension who were taking Esidrix (hydrochlorothiazide) in a dose of 50 mg. twice daily. Each patient had maintained a serum potassium concentration of at least 0.5 meq./l. less than duplicate control values (mean decreases, 0.62 meq./l.) for at least 2 months during therapy with hydrochlorothiazide, 50 mg. twice daily. Potassium chloride 10% elixir was administered in a total daily dose of 40 mg. with bimonthly increments to 60 mg., 80 mg. and 100 mg. while the thiazide administration was maintained. The serum potassium deficit was repleted to 75% in 12 of the 15 patients. In 8 of the 12, this was accomplished with 40 mg. potassium chloride daily, and in 4, with 60 mg. daily. The latter dose is recommended in patients with thiazide-induced hypokalemia.

Thirty-six adult patients with cardiovascular disorders were enrolled in an open 12 week study to evaluate the efficacy, safety and patient acceptance of sustained-release potassium chloride (Klotrix; I) tablets, at a dosage of 1.8 g daily. These patients were on an established regimen of potassium wasting diuretics as part of their treatment for hypertension or arteriosclerotic heart disease, and all were receiving an oral potassium supplement. On the first day of the study, the previously used oral potassium supplement was discontinued and I substituted. Serum potassium levels remained normal and other laboratory parameters did not change significantly as a result of the changeover from the previous potassium supplement to I. However, side effects occurred less frequently with I, and while more than half the patients commented on the bad taste or bad aftertaste of their previous supplement, no such comments were recorded for I. Patient acceptance of I was high, and 87% of the patients who completed the study expressed a preference for I over their previous oral potassium supplement.

4.3 Drug Warning

The cardiac effects of hyperkalemia are principal toxic effects of potassium. They are mediated through changes in the intra/extracellular potassium ratio, which alters cardiac conduction. With no underlying conduction defects a transient increase in cardiac conduction occurs with potassium concentrations above 7 mmol/L, but a profound depression occurs when concentrations rise over 8.0 mmol/L. One of the effects of hyperkalemia is the depolarisation of cardiac muscle, which interferes with normal contractility. Potassium chloride exerts a direct irritant effect on the gastrointestinal mucosa.

Local pain and inflammation may result from subcutaneous injection). Skin rash has rarely been reported with potassium preparations.

The initial signs of poisoning are generally gastrointestinal: nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. These symptoms can develop into abdominal pain and eventually paralytic ileus. Gastrointestinal perforation after oral exposure can occur. Bleeding and perforation have been reported in patients receiving solid forms of potassium chloride.

A number of neuromuscular effects can be seen, usually with potassium concentrations of 7.0 mmol/L or higher. General weakness and flaccidity precede ascending paralysis. Tremor, paresthesias, decreased vibration perception and proprioception can be seen, but the sensory function is usually intact. Dysarthria and dysphagia may occur.

5 Pharmacology and Biochemistry

5.1 Pharmacology

The potassium ion is in the principle intracellular cation of most body tissues. Potassium ions participate in a number of essential physiological processes including the maintenance of intracellular tonicity, the transmission of nerve impulses, the contraction of cardiac, skeletal and smooth muscle, and the maintenance of normal renal function. The intracellular concentration of potassium is approximately 150 to 160 mEq per liter. The normal adult plasma concentration is 3.5 to 5 mEq per liter. An active ion transport system maintains this gradient across the plasma membrane. Potassium is a normal dietary constituent and under steady-state conditions the amount of potassium absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract is equal to the amount excreted in the urine. The usual dietary intake of potassium is 50 to 100 mEq per day. Potassium depletion will occur whenever the rate of potassium loss through renal excretion and/or loss from the gastrointestinal tract exceeds the rate of potassium intake. Such depletion usually develops as a consequence of therapy with diuretics, primarily or secondary hyperaldosteronism, diabetic ketoacidosis, or inadequate replacement of potassium in patients on prolonged parenteral nutrition. Depletion can develop rapidly with severe diarrhea, especially if associated with vomiting. Potassium depletion due to these causes is usually accompanied by concomitant loss of chloride and is manifested by hypokalemia and metabolic alkalosis. Potassium depletion may produce weakness, fatigue, disturbances of cardiac rhythm (primarily ectopic beats), prominent U-waves in the electrocardiogram, and, in advanced cases, flaccid paralysis and/or impaired ability to concentrate urine. If potassium depletion associated with metabolic alkalosis cannot be managed by correcting the fundamental cause of the deficiency, e.g., where the patient requires long-term diuretic therapy, supplemental potassium in the form of high potassium food or potassium chloride may be able to restore normal potassium levels. In rare circumstances (e.g., patients with renal tubular acidosis) potassium depletion may be associated with metabolic acidosis and hyperchloremia. In such patients, potassium replacement should be accomplished with potassium salts other than the chloride, such as potassium bicarbonate, potassium citrate, potassium acetate, or potassium gluconate.

5.4 Absorption, Distribution and Excretion

Absorption

Potassium is a normal dietary constituent and under steady-state conditions the amount of potassium absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract is equal to the amount excreted in the urine.

Route of Elimination

Potassium is a normal dietary constituent and, under steady-state conditions, the amount of potassium absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract is equal to the amount excreted in the urine. Potassium depletion will occur whenever the rate of potassium loss through renal excretion and/or loss from the gastrointestinal tract exceeds the rate of potassium intake.

At steady state continuous excretion of potassium chloride in the urine and faeces equals the daily intake.

Orally and intravenously administered potassium chloride reaches an equilibrium between the extracellular fluid and intracellular space.

Almost all orally administered potassium chloride is absorbed. The peak level and its occurrence time after ingestion depend on the preparation administered.

About 90% of the ingested dose of potassium is absorbed by passive diffusion in the membrane of the upper intestine. Potassium is distributed to all tissues where it is the principal intracellular cation. Insulin, acid-base status, aldosterone, and adrenergic activity regulate cellular uptake of potassium. /potassium/

5.5 Mechanism of Action

Supplemental potassium in the form of high potassium food or potassium chloride may be able to restore normal potassium levels.

K+ is the principal cation mediating the osmotic balance of the body fluids. In animals, the maintenance of normal cell volume and pressure depends on Na+ and K+ pumping. The K+/Na+ separation has allowed for evolution of reversible transmembrane electrical potentials essential for nerve and muscle action in animals, and both potassium and chloride are important in transmission of nerve impulses to the muscle fibers. /postasium/

OECD; Screening INformation Data Set (SIDS) Initial Assessment Report for SIDS Initial Assessment Meeting (SIAM) 13, Potassium Chloride (CAS 7447-40-7) (November 2001). Available from, as of March 23, 2015. https://www.inchem.org/pages/sids.html

The reported mutagenic effect of KCl most probably results from a disruption of osmotic balance of cells with a subsequent interference with chromosomal stability. This may result in the clastogenic effects (DNA breakage and chromosome structural instability) due to K+ effects on sequestering of Mg2+ ions required for normal maintenance of chromatin integrity. Other chemicals may also exert such effect (e.g. NaCl, sucrose).

Potassium and chloride is also important in the regulation of the acid-base balance of the body. Potassium is the principal base in tissues of blood cells, and Cl maintains electrochemical neutrality by anion exchange with bicarbonate (the chloride shift) in the CO2 transport in the blood red cells.
