K Lyte Effervescent Orange is a mineral supplement used to treat or prevent low amounts of potassium in the blood. Potassium is an essential mineral that plays a vital role in the proper functioning of cells, kidneys, heart, muscles, and nerves.

A normal level of potassium in the blood is important for overall health. Most people can maintain adequate potassium levels by consuming a well-balanced diet.

However, certain conditions or situations can lead to low potassium levels, such as severe prolonged diarrhea and vomiting, hormone problems like hyperaldosteronism, or treatment with diuretics (commonly known as "water pills").

K Lyte Effervescent Orange can help restore and maintain appropriate potassium levels in the body. It is an effervescent formulation, which means it dissolves in water and creates a fizzy drink for easy consumption.

Do’s

  • Take it exactly as directed by your healthcare provider, usually 1-4 times daily.
  • Take it with meals to prevent stomach upset.
  • Dissolve the tablet(s) completely in at least 4 ounces (120 ml) of cold water or juice.
  • Sip the solution slowly over 5-10 minutes. Use more liquid if you experience stomach upset.
  • Take it regularly at the same time(s) each day for maximum benefit.
  • Inform your healthcare provider if your condition doesn't improve or you experience symptoms of low potassium (irregular heartbeat, muscle weakness/cramps).

Don'ts

  • Don't chew or swallow the tablet whole. Always dissolve it first.
  • Don't increase your dose or take it more often than prescribed.
  • Don't take it if you have high potassium levels (hyperkalemia).
  • Don't take it with certain medications that can interact with potassium (discuss with your healthcare provider).

Common side effects:

  • Upset stomach or indigestion
  • Nausea or vomiting

This is not an exhaustive list, and other side effects may occur. If you experience any unusual or severe side effects while taking K lyte effervescent orange, contact your healthcare provider for medical advice.

Talk to your healthcare provider about allergies before taking K-Lyte, especially if you have any allergies to inactive ingredients.

Inform your healthcare provider of your medical history, particularly if you have heart problems, kidney problems, high blood potassium levels, or digestive issues like blockage, narrowing, or ulcers.

Disclose all medications you use to your healthcare provider before surgery, including prescription drugs, non-prescription drugs, and herbal products.

Consult your healthcare provider before using other potassium supplements or salt substitutes containing potassium to avoid excessive potassium intake and potential side effects.

Discuss the risks and benefits of using K-Lyte with your healthcare provider if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
