Re: Potassium loss caused by carbo/gemzar?

Hi Ev. I'm no expert and don't know any particulars of Carb/Gemzar. But re: vomiting and potassium -- I think it's usually the other way 'round. The vomiting causes the potassium loss. Diuretics are usually the culprit in low potassium but vomiting and/or diarrhea can do it, too.
