Hypokalemia in patients with metabolic acidosis should be treated with an alkalinizing potassium salt (i.e. acetate, bicarbonate, citrate, or gluconate) rather than potassium chloride, since alkali therapy helps to promote cellular uptake of potassium. Close monitoring of acid-base balance, serum electrolytes, electrocardiogram, and clinical status is recommended.
