How do I take Klor-Con?

Klor-Con comes as a tablet that is taken with food and a full glass of water. Swallow the tablet whole, as breaking or crushing it may cause too much potassium chloride to be released at once. Follow any special dietary instructions your doctor gives you. There may be certain foods that you should consume or avoid to help make Klor-Con pills more effective.

What if I forget to take a dose of Klor-Con?

If you miss a dose, take it with food as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next scheduled dose, skip the missed one and resume your normal dosing routine.

What happens if I overdose on Klor-Con?

Overdosing on Klor-Con may lead to muscle weakness, confusion, an irregular heart rate, and other serious side effects. Seek emergency medical attention if you believe that you or someone in your household has overdosed on this supplement.

What are the possible side effects of taking Klor-Con?

Serious side effects of Klor-Con are uncommon, but some people who take this supplement experience mild nausea, upset stomach, vomiting, diarrhea, or tingling in the hands or feet. If you have any of these side effects and they last a long time or become severe, tell your doctor. You may notice empty pill shells in your stools, but this is not a cause for concern. You should stop taking Klor-Con and contact your doctor immediately if you have any rare but serious side effects, including painful swallowing, muscle weakness, lightheadedness, unusual mental changes, extreme thirst, more frequent urination, or an irregular heartbeat. Get emergency medical attention if you have severe stomach or abdominal pain, black or tarry stools, or vomit that looks like coffee grounds.

How do I store Klor-Con?

Store Klor-Con pills in a tightly sealed container at room temperature. Do not keep it in the bathroom, since heat and moisture can negatively affect it. As with all prescription medicines, keep it out of reach of any children or pets in your home.
