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).
What is Hypokalemia? Hypokalemia is a very low level of potassium in the blood. Symptoms include irregular heart beat, fatigue, muscle weakness, and possible high blood pressure. Treatment for hypokalemia includes medications, increasing potassium intake, and intravenous potassium replacement. Common drug classes used to treat hypokalemia are aldosterone antagonists and potassium salts.
