abstract={In the present case with primary pseudohypoaldosteronism, severe hypekalemia was treated with salbutamol inhalation in acute phase. Transcellular hypokalemic effect of salbutamol is related to the activation of Na-K pump on the cell membrane. Although use of salbutamol inhalation in hyperkalemia was previously described, it has not been widely used. The administration of salbutamol by inhalation is a simple, safe and reasonably effective method for treatment of hyperkalemia even in children.},
