Potassium in the blood - Potassium (K), Serum

This analysis measures the percentage of potassium element in the blood, and it is one of the very important minerals for regulating heartbeat, muscle function, and fluid balance in the body. If the percentage is high, it may indicate problems with the kidneys or the use of certain medications. If it is low, it may be due to nutritional deficiency, or repeated vomiting and diarrhea, or the use of diuretics. 💡 Advice: Before the analysis, it is preferable not to eat or drink anything other than water for a short period (according to the doctor's instructions), and the result helps the doctor understand your general condition and adjust your treatment or diet.
