It is 600 mg of potassium chloride but only 314 mg of potassium. So this answer is incorrect!

Potassium 595mg equals how many potassium meq?

how many meq's is 595 mg of potassium gluconate in pill form? _____________ You seem to be asking how translate a dose of potassium chloride, which is often expressed as mEq's when prescribed as a drug, into an equivalent dose of potassium in supplemental potassium gluconate, which is generally expressed in mg. 595 mg of potassium gluconate contains about 99mg of elemental potassium. 189 mg of potassium chloride also contains about 99mg of elemental potassium. 189 mg of potassium chloride is about 2.54 mEq That said, the potassium in potassium gluconate is more easily absorbed by the body than is the potassium in potassium chloride, so seeking the equivalent elemental potassium dosage may not be what you want as it may produce different effects in the body. For example, my mother had been prescribed 20mEq of potassium chloride by her doctor, which contains 781.960 mg of elemental potassium. The large pills were hard for her to swallow. Instead i gave her about 1/4 teaspoon of powered potassium gluconate mixed in a glass of water, which contained only about 135 mg elemental potassium, about the same contained in 3.5 mEq of potassium chloride. That was less than a fifth the amount prescribed by her doctor, yet her potassium levels in her blood tests were just fine.

What are the levels of potassium in humans?

Normal plasma level of potassium is 4.5 m osm/ litre. But the intracellular level of potassium is 150 m osm/ litre. You have double the stock of potassium in your body as compared to sodium. You do not have to take the supplement of potassium as every cell you eat has enough potassium in it, whether plant or animal.

What is the difference between 10 mEq and 99 mg?

what is the difference between 10 meq er of potassium and 99 mg of potassium


99mg potassium equals how many meq?

The answer is 2.53 mEq.Here is my work:99mg Potassium x (1mmol/39.0983mg potassium) x (1mEq/1mmol) = 2.53 mEq* The 39.0983 comes from the atomic mass of Potassium which means that 39.0983 grams = 1 mol (which also means 39.0983 milligrams = 1 millimol (mmol). 1 mmol of potassium = 1 milliequivalent (mEq) because milliequivalents are just the number of mmols of charges (positive/negative), and since potassium has 1 positive charge 1 mmol = 1 mEq.This is the over-the-counter dose. Most prescriptions are for 20mEq doses but usually range from 8mEq to 40mEq.
