Potassium Chloride for Other
Adult dosing has a median of 10 mEq across 8 published protocols, with the middle half between 10 and 20.
Includes 1 agency outside the US.
Doses far off from what other protocols give are likely misreads, so they are left out until checked. How that works.

Values in mEq. One value per source (that source's median), so a document listing a medication five times still gets one vote.
