Can hypokalemia be treated with oral potassium chloride?

Hypokalemia can generally be treated with oral potassium chloride. Oral administration of potassium chloride is a commonly used clinical method that effectively replenishes potassium. Medication should be taken under medical supervision to avoid inappropriate or blind use. In severe cases, intravenous infusion may be required. During treatment, dietary adjustments are important; patients can appropriately consume foods rich in potassium.
