It's my second day on this medication, I'm on three tablets (1800mg) per day. Went to the Doctor with a weird "wobbly" legs sensation, as if legs were detached from the rest of my body, and she diagnosed me as having low potassium. Does anyone out there know how long I can expect to be taking Slow K before there's any sign of improvement? Sorry, can't really rate this drug as not been taking it ...

I've been on Slow-K for 9 months, even on it I've had 15 emergency admissions. I've now had my dosage doubled to 8 per day, so we'll see if it works- hopefully soon!

Does anyone out there know how long I can expect to be taking Slow K before there's any sign of improvement? Sorry, can't really rate this drug as not been taking it long enough, so ignore star ratings for effectiveness and satisfaction. Thanks.
