This medicine is given to patients who cannot receive a phosphate supplement by mouth. 100ml of potassium chloride 10mmol in 250ml of potassium dihydrogen phosphate or potassium acetate or a serum potassium level 2 7 mmol lfor continuous cardiac monitoring more regular observations frequent serum potassium measurements and. The solution is administered after dilution or admixing by the intravenous route. Potassium phosphate injection is a phosphate replacement that is used to treat or prevent hypophosphatemia low phosphorus in the blood.
