Can patients with potassium deficiency drink alcohol?

Alcohol inhibits the secretion of hormones such as the thyroid gland, which mainly has potassium as the basic element, so don't drink alcohol if you are deficient in potassium, and you must drink it and don't drink too much.

Drinking alcohol hurts the body, and it is better not to drink it. The body is the capital of the revolution, and it is necessary to take care of the body before talking about anything else.

Hello, drinking alcohol does not cause potassium deficiency, but: potassium deficiency can not drink: do not drink alcohol.

If the body lacks electrolytes, many physiological functions will stop, and the balance of water and acid-base in the body will be disrupted. Potassium helps the heart maintain a regular heartbeat and helps stabilize blood pressure. Functions of potassium:

Potassium is a large amount of substances in the body, most of which are found in various cells and coordinate with the inside of the cells to maintain the acid-base balance of blood and body fluids, as well as maintain the stability of water balance and osmotic pressure in the body. The rest of the potassium is stored in the nerves, blood cells and muscles. The most important function of sodium, potassium and chloride is to maintain the balance of water and pH in the body.

Effect of potassium deficiency on the body: Long-term potassium deficiency will have symptoms such as irregular heartbeat, abnormal nerve conduction, and vomiting. When a large amount of water is lost (such as diarrhea and very heavy sweating), electrolytes should be replenished in addition to water, and if only a large amount of water is replaced without electrolytes, symptoms of exhaustion such as weakness, cramping, vomiting and diarrhea will occur.

Hello landlord, drinking alcohol will induce the occurrence of low potassium, it is recommended to quit drinking in time**, periodic hypokalemia can not be found at present, it is recommended to supplement potassium in time**, avoid cottonseed oil.

The landlord, I experienced it last night, it is estimated that there is a lack of potassium, drank some wine, and then went to the squatting pit, squatted down, couldn't get up, and then called the waiter, picked me up, but the leg was not strong at all, and then in the hospital KCL was slightly better, until today the leg is not strong, it is recommended that the landlord lack potassium do not drink!

You're so talented, you're absolutely right.

Watermelon is a very rich food with potassium. Fresh vegetables and fruits contain more potassium, and you can eat more fruits such as bananas, citrus, apricots, strawberries, grapefruits, and grapes as appropriate; Vegetables such as greens, celery, green onions, potatoes, edamame, and green garlic are also rich in potassium; Mung beans, adzuki beans, broad beans, black beans, lentils, kelp, seaweed, yellow croaker, chicken, milk, cornmeal, soba noodles, and sunflower seeds also contain a certain amount of potassium. It is also good to drink more tea in the summer because tea is rich in potassium.

Drinking more tea can not only cool off the heat, but also replenish potassium, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

A lower serum potassium concentration is called hypokalemia.

It is more common in long-term fasting or low food, and insufficient potassium intake; Caused by excessive potassium excretion due to heavy vomiting, diarrhoea, and long-term use of diuretics such as furosemide. The clinical manifestations are mainly neurological and muscular dysfunction, the more potassium loss is faster or accompanied by increased NA and CA concentrations, the symptoms are more obvious, hypokalemia is often mixed with the symptoms of the primary disease, which is easy to delay the diagnosis and should be paid attention to. When intravenous potassium supplementation, the urine output must be more than 30ml hours, do not be too fast or excessive, and intravenous bolus is strictly prohibited.

1.Weakness of the limbs, paralysis, sluggish or absent tendon reflexes, and dyspnea in severe cases.

2.Apathy, glazed eyes, lethargy, delirium.

3.Nausea, vomiting, bloating, intestinal paralysis.

4.Heart palpitations, arrhythmias.

1.Serum potassium is lower.

2.ECG shows low flat, bidirectional or inverted T-waves and U-waves.

1.Actively ** cause the primary disease of K deficiency, return to normal diet.

2.Potassium supplementation:

1) When supplementing potassium, oral should be taken as much as possible, and intravenous supplementation should not be taken orally.

2) Intravenous potassium chloride, bolus injection is strictly prohibited, generally add glucose solution for infusion, the concentration should not exceed 3, and the drip rate should not exceed 80 drops per minute; Do not add more than 6g-8g every 24 hours.

3) When accompanied by acidosis, potassium bicarbonate can be used instead.

4) For patients with liver impairment, potassium glutamate can be used instead.

5) When the cardiac involvement is obvious or accompanied by MG deficiency, L potassium magnesium aspartate can be used.
