It was under hypokalemia. Here's the link: http://216.239.39.100/search?q=cache:-_GkPgJTAacC:www.aafp.org/fpm/20011000/bo x_a.doc+K-rider+in+iv+bag & hl=en & ie=UTF8 If that doesn't work, I typed in k-rider in IV bag to get the link. There was another one, too, spelled " K-rider " about hypokalemia. K-rider = 10-40 mEq in 100 cc of normal saline IVPB, with primary line running at 80-125cc/hr for __________________.

I don't see responses until days later. LOL Well, maybe not that late, but definitely out of sequence. That's why I usually don't respond at all. Seems by the time I get posts, there have been other answers to posts, and my posts are posted before but I haven't seen them.......post, post.....ad nauseam.

Guest guest Posted June 6, 2002 Report Share Posted June 6, 2002 Hi, I was looking in my Stedmans Endocrinology Words book and was wondered if it could be " Krebs-Ringer solution. " Just a thought.

Guest guest Posted June 6, 2002 Report Share Posted June 6, 2002 K-Lyte works for me, but it's not what he's dictating. I thought maybe I was behind the times and there was a new drug. A name like K-righter, i.e., making the potassium level right, would be a good name for such a drug. Jayni This e-mail has been scanned with Norton Antivirus updated no more than 12 hours ago.

Guest guest Posted June 6, 2002 Report Share Posted June 6, 2002 Jayni, I really think it is a new drug also, seems to me I heard it the other day and wasn't able to find it either. My thinkin was more along the lines of K-Rider, in that it was placed along with the IV fluid bag, ths " riding " with it. I don't think K-Lyte works since it is a tablet and this is in the IV fluids. Just my thoughts. Hopefully one of us will find out what it is sometime soon.
