Warnings and precautions
Before starting treatment with Fosfate dipotassium 1M Fresenius Kabi, your doctor must take special precautions and evaluate whether to administer or not this medication:
It is recommended, for all the above, to monitor renal function, frequent ECGs, and periodic determinations of serum calcium, phosphate, potassium, and sodium.
It is essential to avoid exceeding the indicated doses, as it could cause phosphate intoxication and hyperpotasemia (high levels of phosphate and potassium in the blood).
The intravenous perfusion of phosphates in large quantities can lead to hypocalcemia (low levels of calcium in the blood).
In chronic administration, it can cause fluid retention.
Use of other medications
Inform your doctor or pharmacist if you are using or have recently used other medications, including those obtained without a prescription.
The parenteral use of dipotassium phosphate is not recommended with digitalis glycosides, in digitalized patients, with severe or complete heart block, due to the possible hyperpotasemia (high levels of potassium in the blood).
If dipotassium phosphate is added to patients stabilized on treatments with salicylates, it can cause an increase in plasma levels of these substances to toxic concentrations, as the acidification of the urine by phosphates reduces the excretion of salicylates.
The concomitant administration of dipotassium phosphate and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, captopril, ciclosporina, diuretics that spare potassium, enalapril, heparin used chronically, lisinopril, low-sodium milk, salt substitutes, or other medications containing potassium can increase potassium levels in the blood, especially in patients with renal dysfunction.
