It is not safe to self medicate with potassium IMO.
You can choose foods high in this mineral: Cantloupe is very high. Over 1000mg /half melon V8 juice also high. If your blood work was normal... I'd not recommend artificial supplements. OTC limits on potassium are 99mg/tablet ...not worth the money. Use that money to buy food instead. Potassium in food is extracted by the body in a more safe manner. Use this tool to see how much potassium is in the food you eat: http://nutritiondata.self.com/
