Enhances sodium-potassium exchanger function • 2. Improves kidney K+ handling • 3. Serum Mg levels can be misleading • Remember: • • Severe hypokalemia often means hypomagnesemia too • • Cellular shifts can mask true Mg deficiency • • Don't rely solely on serum Mg levels • Pro Tip: • For faster, more reliable K+ replacement, give Mg at the same time! • Have you tried this trick?
