Is swollen vein and arm pain 4 days after IV hydration something of concern?
I have the exact same problem, only its been a week and half since i got my IV injections. Apparently after you receive IV injections your vein may become swollen due to the fluid medication irritating the walls of the vein or because your vein is just naturally really thin. Its called Phlebitis if I'm not mistaken. Anyway. I've read a lot about it and apparently It's not dangerous but takes a long time to go away. (some people say 3-8 weeks) Placing heat on it or even something cold helps the inflammation.It shouldn't be serious, and yes you will feel some pain around the area. However, if you experience fever, severe pain, your arm get very swollen or any other out of the ordinary symptoms the vein may be infected and you must see you doctor Immediately!!Hope this helps, best of luck on it...hopefully mine gets better soon.

IV Potassium Chloride can be given orally?
UTILISE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN DEALING WITH COMPOUNDS OF POTASSIUM VIA ANY ROUTE, AS IT CAN BE FATAL IF ADMINISTERED WRONGLY. ONLY QUALIFIED PRACTITIONERS SHOULD BE ADMINISTERING IV POTASSIUM CHLORIDE ! With regards to your question, of course it can, but that doesn't mean you should. Lots of drugs can't, but potassium chloride is a salt and won't be denatured by the alimentary canal. We use iv ampoules in patients nasogastric feed in ICU. The only reason it is IV is that it is verified as being sterile and fit for IV administration.. Many drugs can't be cross administered and the dosages between oral and IV are different in many cases, but potassium chloride can be. If you are not a practitioner dealing with a patient you shouldn't be handling IV potassium chloride at all really, as it is very dangerous via the iv route. Patients in the community should be taking oral potassium chloride supplements.
