Suggest Medication For Severe Abdominal Pain
what is the half life of Klor-Con? I am a home health nurse with a patient who is complaining of moderate to severe abdominal pain after being D/C'd from the hospital on PO K+. Pt received lasix in hospiital and required K+ protocol. Previous labs were normal. If pt is taken off Klor-Con, how long will it take for the abdominal pain to subside?

Hello
welcome to hcm
Klor con cantains potassium chloride which is known to cause SEVERE GASTRITIS leading to pain abdoman thats why its should never be given alone n should be given along with ANTACIDS to neutralize its effects on protective gastric mucous lining...give these medicines for 2 weeks to heal the damage caused by kcl
(1) CAPSULE RABEPRAZOLE once daily before breakfast
(2) TABLET RANITIDINE twice daily
(3) TABLET DICYCLOMINE 3 times a day
(4) ANTACID SYRUP 4 teaspoons 3 times a day
(5) SYRUP SUCRALFATE 2 teaspoons 3 times a day
