  • Title: [Hypopotassemia and megaloblastic anemia. Presentation of a case].
    Author: Omboni E, Checchini M, Longoni F.
    Journal: Minerva Med; 1987 Aug 31; 78(16):1255-7. PubMed ID: 3627537.
    Abstract:
    A case of megaloblastic anaemia probably caused by malabsorption is analysed. Blood potassium levels were monitored before and during treatment with vitamin B12. It is concluded that low potassium levels in chronically hypoxic patients may be dangerous and that blood potassium should be monitored constantly during the treatment of this type of anaemia.
