[|Human|] I got a blood test done and they said my potassium was 3.2, they prescribed me with 20meq ER tablets. I ve been taking them for 3 days now and they said to take them for 10. When I take them it makes me feel dizzy or like my chest is tight. I also have anxiety. Should I stop taking them?
[|AI|]  Hello, Low sodium or potassium levels can create anxiety, weakness and dizziness etc. As your symptoms bear a temporal relation with low potassium, I think you should discuss this with the doctor who is giving you the medicine. There are other choices available in market which donor cause significant reduction in potassium while also prevent its rise at the same time. So, it will be wise to consult this with the treating team and not stop the medicine on your own. Even high potassium level is dangerous and should be balanced. I hope the reply is useful for you.
