How Recognize and Treat Low Chloride Levels (Hypochloremia)

Chloride is an important electrolyte that works with sodium and potassium to control the balance of acids and bases in your body. While there often aren't any symptoms of low chloride levels, or "hypochloremia," it's likely if you've been sweating a lot or if you've had multiple bouts of diarrhea or vomiting. Usually, you can correct hypochloremia on your own simply by drinking more fluids. However, if the problem persists for more than a day or two, contact your doctor. Hypochloremia can occasionally be a symptom of more serious medical problems, such as heart failure.[1]
