Hyperkalemia represents the most frequent electrolyte complication in medical practice. This fact acquires great importance due to its association to diseases such as heart failure (HF), diabetes mellitus (DM) or chronic renal failure (CRF), true challenges for current medicine. Therefore, the clinical case presented is relevant because it is a 72-year-old female patient with CRF secondary to a type 2 DM of 14 years of evolution, who has a lack of control in blood glucose, hyperkalemia, anemia and diabetic gastropathy. manifested by watery, painless, debilitating evacuations, more than 10 times, for which she was hospitalized. His in-hospital treatment was supervised by the gastroenterology, nephrology, cardiology, internal medicine and nutriology departments. Upon discharge, he goes to homeopathic consultation and presents glucose in normal limits (90 mg/dl). However, it continues with mild hyperkalemia (5.6 mEq/L) and symptoms of diabetic gastropathy. Kali carbonicum is indicated at low power. The results are immediately positive and highly promising because it lowers potassium to (4.6 mEq/L) and dramatically improves the clinical picture. (AU)
