also a risk factor for high blood pressure. Both excessive sodium intake and high blood pressure are major risk factors for developing heart failure, and for causing complications in those with existing heart failure. 4. A patient is prescribed a diuretic that increases potassium excretion. What do you expect to happen to serum potassium levels? What signs and symptoms may be present? Potassium levels would decrease. Signs and Symptoms would be muscle weakness, muscle cramps, and confusion. 5. A young patient is abusing laxatives in order to lose weight. What electrolytes imbalances may manifest?
