Summary
This study tested whether 5 units of insulin works as well as 10 units for lowering dangerously high potassium levels in adults. 384 participants received either dose, and their potassium was measured after 2 hours. The goal was to see if the lower dose could be just as effective while reducing the risk of low blood sugar.
