My father was recently detected with low potassium as went still when we took him to the hospital.  After being admistered with oral and IV potassium he was discharged from the hospital with 3.4 level of potassium.  he also gave oral medication for taking patassium.  After the 4 day we have sent his blood for tests and now his potassium is showing 6.3 .  Ha also had fever and cough because of which he is taking dualin and buedecort.
Hi, Thanks for asking. Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.1. 6.3 potassium is too high.2. Meet your doctor immediately. High potassium can cause myocardial infarction. Stop taking any potassium immediately.3. After it comes back to normal, increase potassium in diet through nuts, legumes, fish, banana, apricots, etc.4. Not related to fever or medication. Discuss with your doctor to control potassium level immediately. Hope it helps. Any further queries, happy to help again.
