Report muscle cramps, marked weakness, confusion or an irregular heartbeat; these can be signs your potassium or sodium has fallen. In hot weather or during an illness with vomiting or loose motions, tell your doctor — you may become dehydrated quickly. This water tablet keeps potassium rather than losing it. Do not take potassium supplements or salt substitutes with it unless your doctor has told you to.
