Hypokalemia is the deficiency of potassium in the bloodstream. It is also called as low potassium level. Patients suffer from this deficiency because of inadequate dietary intake of potassium, eating liquorice or caffeine. In this report, a patient with hypokalemia is treated with Injection KCl [potassium chloride] dose: 2amp which should be given in 1pint[473.176millilitres] normal saline but it was given in 100ml normal saline. So, the patient developed hypersensitivity [drug hypersensitivity]reactions and body shivering is observed. As hypokalemia should be treated with potassium supplements mostly through IV[Intravenous]route, proper dose should be given to the patient and proper dose should be given in accurate amount of isotonic saline. If it is not given in accurate doses, it leads to further complications

Hypokalemia, hypersensitivity, accurate doses
