Abstract
Understanding the common etiologies of hypokalemic nonperiodic paralysis may aid in early diagnosis. Patients with initial lower plasma K+, renal K+ wasting, and hypovolemia required higher recovery K+ dosage. Paradoxical hypokalemia is prone to develop in hypovolemic patients even during K+ supplementation with volume repletion.
