1 Hypokalemic periodic paralysis is a situation that may arise during pregnancy due to the extreme muscle weakness, due to low potassium level, for a short period of time.  Hypokalemia can cause the cardiac complication known as cardiac dysrhythmias (irregular heartbeats).
This is the most common cause of hypokalemia. Other causes of hypokalemia include: 1  Increased excretion (or loss) of potassium from your body. 2  Some medications may cause potassium loss which can lead to hypokalemia.3  Common medications include loop diuretics (such as Furosemide).ne way your body regulates blood potassium levels is by shifting potassium into and out of cells. When there is a breakdown or destruction of cells, the electrolyte potassium moves from inside of the cell to outside of the cell wall. This shift of potassium into the cells causes hypokalemia.
