Yaz Affects Potassium Levels | Northwest Ohio Yaz injury lawyer

Potassium is essential for the proper function of your body. Too much of it though can be just as harmful. Yaz birth control may affect the potassium levels on some individuals more than other birth controls. The synthetic progestin that Yaz uses, drosperinome, is the reason behind this. Potassium levels that are too high can lead to heart arrhythmias, cardiac arrest, and changes in nerve and/or muscle control. Women taking Yaz should have their potassium levels checked within the first month of taking it.

There are some warning signs that your potassium levels are too high. These symptoms include: irregular heartbeat, nausea, slow/weak/abnormal heartbeat, change in breathing pattern, weakness, and loss of consciousness.
