Potassium chloride is for mineral supplementation

• When prescribed by a healthcare professional P.C.73 is generally well tolerated at the recommend dose and may be prescribed for infants, children, pregnant and lactating women, and the elderly.

Prescribing Information
Potassium is involved in nerve conduction and many other body functions. Key roles of chloride include maintaining hydration, osmotic pressure and the ionic balance of body fluids. Both minerals are required for gastric acid production.

• Gastrointestinal function: Potassium and chloride are both essential for the production of gastric acid.
• Fluid balance: Potassium and chloride are involved in the regulation of water balance. Potassium acts with extracellular sodium to maintain normal osmotic pressure and influences the ability of the kidney to correct imbalances with the excretion process. The status of chloride channels influences the uptake or loss of water by cells, and hence the regulation of cell volume.
