Difference between Adrenal insufficiency and Hypokalemia

Adrenal insufficiency vs. Hypokalemia

Adrenal insufficiency is a condition in which the adrenal glands do not produce adequate amounts of steroid hormones, primarily cortisol; but may also include impaired production of aldosterone (a mineralocorticoid), which regulates sodium conservation, potassium secretion, and water retention. Hypokalemia, also spelled hypokalaemia, is a low level of potassium (K+) in the blood serum.

Similarities between Adrenal insufficiency and Hypokalemia
