Hi
I wouldn't recommend taking potassium pills without your doctor's consent. If your potassium levels go out of whack you can have serious heart problems.
We should all be careful about what we "add on" to our regiment of meds.
Drink lots of water and it will flush out your system. Avoid too much sodium in your diet.
Talk to your doctor about it.
