Secondary hyperkalemic paralysis is an uncommonbut potentially life-threatening consequence of drug-induceddisease.We report a case of a 53-year-old female with history of chronic kidney disease presenting to the emergency department with a one-day history of upper and lower extremity weakness and paresthesias. Serum potassium concentration on admission was greater than 8mEq/L, and serum creatinine was elevated above baseline. Electrocardiogram showed first-degree atrioventricular block with peaked T waves. The patient reported compliance with daily lisinopril 10mg, spironolactone 25mg, and 40mEq t...
