Does Crystal Meth deplete any potassium??

I heard somewhere that doing methamphetamine decreases your bodys natural production of potassium is this true?

I think my boyfriends mom is doing meth and thats the reason i ask. I used to do it myself but that si** is so dumb. i just wanted to know because she has VERY low potassium levels. i know how dangerous and dumb it is.

meth is a diuretic (makes u pee) as well as a stimulant (lots of perspiration) both of which will reduce your potassium levels quickly - many alcoholics also experience low potassium for the same reasons
keep in mind , though, low potassium does not = meth addiction, for example hyperthyroidism also shows low potassium levels
with the high prevalence of meth abuse it probably is a good guess that she's using, though
