Hello,

Do a repeat potassium assay to find out the exact status of your potassium level. If it is between 3 to 4, you can take Potassium Chloride syrup and include more potassium rich foods in your diet as banana, cheese etc. If the value is below 3, intravenous supplementation is required and in that case, you have to consult a physician and get evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
