First seen May 07, 2026 · Last updated May 24, 2026 · Updated 4 times
Summary
This study compares a lower dose of insulin (5 units) with the usual dose (10 units) for treating mild to moderate high potassium in emergency patients. The goal is to see if the lower dose works just as well while causing fewer side effects like low blood sugar. About 50 adults with potassium levels between 5.7 and 6.4 mmol/L will take part, and their potassium and blood sugar will be monitored for 6 hours.
