"Taking Klor-Con for well over a year now for hypokalemia. If you have problems with 20 mEq, the 10 mEq is much smaller, as I prefer, you would just have to alter your dosage. This Rx works great for me. I just spread it out throughout the day with food and water to prevent stomach upset, as I’m on 100 mEq/day. I used to be on 200 mEq/day due to my extreme lows. Definitely helps with retention/edema, headaches, constipation, fatigue, and hypertension."

"I prefer the fizzy tablets to these extremely large and difficult-to-swallow pills. I have chronic hypokalemia and take Klor-Con 20 twice a day. It seems to work okay as once in a while I get a normal potassium level. Usually I'm still hypokalemic, though. It's not as low as before, and I've managed to stay out of the hospital since starting this. I have no side effects. The pills are so difficult to swallow!"

"Worst medicine. Had terrible abdominal pain and diarrhea. Pain level was an 11! Dizzy, confused, how can they make people go through this?"

"I use this to prevent muscle cramps so severe that I have thought I would tear muscles loose. I take 2 tablets each day along with 3 x 600 mg calcium citrate with Vitamin D caplets. Sometimes I have to take an additional Klor-Con 20 if I am passing a lot of urine. I take Lasix 40 mg a day, I was taking 80 mg, and I would get cramps within 6 hours of taking it. I had been using quinine previously, but it was taken off the market."
