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.
