  • Hypokalemic periodic paralysis (HypoPP) is a rare, inherited disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of muscle weakness or paralysis. It is caused by a decrease in the level of potassium in the blood (hypokalemia). Symptoms typically occur after eating, rest, or exercise and can range from mild to severe. The episodes may last for minutes to days and can be life-threatening if breathing muscles are affected. Treatment includes avoiding triggers and taking medications such as potassium supplements and diuretics.
