Good morning
What potassium to use for a sensitive stomach? I took Potazek Max for 1.5 months and now I have symptoms of heartburn and burning in my stomach. Previously, Kalipoz was also irritating. Aspargin didn't cause discomfort, but it's low in potassium per tablet, and I'm taking high blood pressure medication that flushes out potassium. I don't have acid reflux or other esophageal disorders.

Oral potassium preparations are best given with or just after a meal with plenty of liquid. Please let me know if you have taken potassium on an empty stomach or on an empty stomach.
Patients with ulcers, inflammation of the stomach or intestines should not take potassium in tablet form, but only in liquid form.
Please consult your doctor to determine the preparation, as you will need the medication prescribed by your doctor.
Potassium in liquid form is only available with a prescription:
