Full Prescribing Info
Action
Mode of Action: The slow- and sustained-release over a period of 6 hrs precludes high concentrations of potassium chloride against a localized area of the gut wall which might irritate or damage the mucosa. The sustained release provides conditions of maximum gastric tolerance and effective absorption for the treatment of all types of potassium deficiency, whether hypochloraemic or hypokalaemic alkalosis. KSR does not alter normal kidney function; can be used in all age groups; replaces the essential chloride anion and potassium, and so prevents hypochloraemic alkalosis.
