This is general information about a homeopathic remedy, not a prescription or dosing advice. In homeopathy the correct remedy and potency are chosen for the whole individual symptom picture by a qualified homeopath — the same remedy is not right for everyone. Do not self-medicate, and consult a qualified homeopathic doctor (and your physician for serious or persistent conditions) before taking any remedy.

Potency
Kali Carbonicum is available in several potencies such as 6C, 30C and 200C, as well as lower and mother-tincture forms in some cases. The right potency and repetition depend entirely on the individual case and are decided by a qualified homeopath - this page gives no dosing instructions.
The Kali Carb picture and modalities
Kali Carbonicum suits a chilly, weary constitution marked by sharp stitching pains and a characteristic aggravation between two and four in the morning. The lower back can feel weak, as if it might give way, and chest complaints come with stitching pains and breathlessness. Puffy upper eyelids are a classic keynote. Such people are sensitive to cold and drafts, dislike being alone, and are easily startled. A homeopath weighs these modalities together rather than any single symptom.
Before you consider Kali Carb
This is background materia-medica information, not a recommendation to self-treat. Back weakness, breathlessness, and persistent fatigue can have causes that need medical assessment, so they should be checked by a doctor rather than assumed to be a remedy picture. In homeopathy the right remedy and potency are chosen for the whole individual by a qualified practitioner, and the same remedy does not suit everyone. Homeopathy should complement, not replace, conventional care.
