Blackmores Professional P.C.M.P.
Potassium chloride and magnesium phosphate are used for mineral supplementation.
P.C.M.P. combines potassium chloride and magnesium phosphate in a single tablet. When prescribed by a healthcare professional, it is generally well tolerated at the recommended dose and may be prescribed for infants, children, pregnant and lactating women, and the elderly.
The easy-to-swallow tablet can be halved or crushed to allow for low-dose prescribing for infants and children.
PRESCRIBING INFORMATION
-
Chloride: Maintains hydration, fluid balance, and, together with potassium, supports gastric acid production.
-
Magnesium and phosphate: Vital for energy production, and together with potassium, are involved in muscle function and nerve conduction.
-
Potassium: Integral to the sodium-potassium pump, regulating neuromuscular excitability, electrochemical impulse transmission, and muscle contraction.
NEUROMUSCULAR FUNCTION
-
Magnesium stabilises neurons at the neuromuscular junction and influences neurotransmitter release.
-
Potassium and magnesium together support neuromuscular function, enabling proper muscle contraction and nerve signaling.
GASTROINTESTINAL FUNCTION
-
Potassium and chloride are essential for the production of gastric acid, supporting normal digestive function.
FLUID BALANCE
-
Potassium and chloride regulate water balance.
-
Potassium works with extracellular sodium to maintain osmotic pressure and assists the kidney in correcting fluid imbalances.
-
Chloride channels influence cellular water uptake and loss, regulating cell volume.
DOSAGE
-
Adults: Take 1 tablet three times a day with meals, or as professionally prescribed.
-
Children under 12 years: As professionally prescribed.
Always read the label. Use only as directed. If symptoms persist, see your healthcare professional.
