Description

A key fungus drug can skew blood salts, and Najwa Al Himali and co-authors charted that skew in adults at a large Oman hospital, in work from twenty twenty-six. Charts spanned ten years and near one hundred patients. Most were men with cancer, and many got the drug on a best guess before tests came back.

Salt shifts were clear and grew over the course: one key salt fell hard, a second fell too, and a third rose. Higher dose per kilo and fluids given before the drug both linked to the main salt drop. Cancer patients started with lower salts and faced stacked risk. The authors call for set salt checks and early top-ups for all on the drug.
