No. They haven't Doug. However I find Doctors tend to write scripts without explanation.
Yes, I had one my potassium and sodium were low. Been drinking electrolyte drinks and eating healthy greens. Bananas.
I asked a similar question I have had low potassium after seizures. And even prescriptions now given to me.
When I had mine the Potassium was at 4.5 and now it's at 4. And I'm talking 3 months on from the seizure.
The prep I had to take once several years ago before I had a colonoscopy caused my potassium to go low which caused me to have a seizure. I have had other meds cause my potassium to be low and cause me to have a seizure. They weren't a grand mal tho. They were a partial I think.
