1. 1. How is insulin Insulin transports potassium from the blood to the cell along with glucose. Insulin
used to treat hy- contributes to the regulation of plasma potassium levels by stimulating the Na+,
perkalemia? K+- ATPase pump, thereby promoting the movement of potassium into liver and
muscle cells simultaneously with glucose transport after eating. The intracellular
movement of potassium prevents an acute hyperkalemia related to food intake.
Insulin also can be used to treat hyperkalemia.

• Water losses associated with extreme sweating.
• Severe watery diarrhea
• Excessive excretion of water from the kidneys or impaired responsiveness of the
kidneys to vasopressin.
