@EGEN123 - because patients are pseudohyperkalemic secondary to the metabolic acidosis. You have to replete the potassium as soon as it reaches around 5 because insulin causes influx of glucose and potassium into the cells.
@EGEN123 well you give fluids first...after you give this, you will find that we do not have hyperkalemia any more (it was fake) and they will actually be in hypokalemia (they lost a lot through vomiting etc) so now you must give K+
Awesome! Absolutely Awesome! Thanks! please review Autonomic Nervous system and how each nerve is affected. (somatic, pns cns) and how pharmacology affects CNS.
Thanks for the easy elaboration....its really helps..

One question: Why do we give potassium when the patient is already hyperkalemic?
