Klor-Con M20 Information:

What is Klor-Con M20?

Klor Con M20 is a prescription drug form of potassium chloride, a naturally-occurring mineral compound of potassium and chlorine. The body needs potassium to survive, and potassium chloride is often prescribed to treat potassium deficiencies or hypokalemia. When an individual is deficient in potassium or has hypokalemia, he or she may experience muscle cramps, muscle weakness, high blood pressure, cardiac arrhythmias, and constipation. Severe hypokalemia can result in respiratory depression from the impairment of skeletal muscle. Some people who are awoken from leg cramping in the middle of the night may need to take potassium supplements. Potassium chloride is also used to treat skin disorders, gout and kidney stones. This medication works by reducing acidity in the blood which decreases swelling in joints and stops crystallizations from forming in the kidneys. It also increases the availability of oxygen in the blood and skin. Different amounts of Klor-Con are prescribed according to the severity of the patient’s condition. Klor-Con M20 mEq is a higher dose of potassium chloride as it contains 1500 mg of potassium chloride or 20 mEq (milliequivalents). Lower doses of potassium chloride can be found in Klor-Con M10 and Klor-Con M15.

How do I take Klor-Con M20?

Klor Con M20 is an extended release medication that slowly releases potassium into the body over time to avoid the dangerous effects of a high build-up of potassium. Do not crush or chew Klor-Con 20 tablets as you will destroy the extended release mechanism. Swallow tablets whole with a glass of water, and take this medication with a meal. Klor-Con 20 is usually taken just once a day. Dissolve effervescent tablets in a glass of approximately 4-5 ounces of water. Allow the tablet to dissolve completely which takes about two minutes. Stir the contents and drink quickly. Put some more water in the bottom of the glass, swirl it around, and consume the remaining contents of the medication.

Before taking Klor-Con M20, tell your doctor if:

  • You are pregnant or breast-feeding.
  • You are taking prescription or nonprescription drugs, vitamins, or supplements, especially potassium, anticholinergics, aldosterone blockers, NSAIDs, or potassium-sparing diuretics.
  • You are allergic to any of the ingredients in this medication.
  • You have diabetes, low blood sugar, or kidney problems.

What are the possible side effects of taking Klor-Con M20?

Klor Con M20 may cause nausea, diarrhea, and upset stomach. Take this medication with food to avoid or reduce these side effects. Gastrointestinal bleeding, ulceration, perforation, and obstruction have been reported with high doses and extended use. If you experience any of these side effects, contact your doctor. Most people will not experience side effects from potassium chloride if it is taken with food and not taken in excess. Hyperkalemia, the opposite of hypokalemia is a possibility when taking Klor-Con 20 mEq. Your doctor should monitor your potassium levels. Signs of hyperkalemia include numbness or tingling sensations, weakness, nausea, abnormal heart beat, and slow pulse.

What if I forget to take a dose of Klor-Con M20?

If you miss a dose of Klor-Con M20, take the missed dose as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for you next dose, skip the missed dose and continue on your regular routine. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed one.

How do I store Klor-Con M20?

Store Klor-Con M20 tightly closed in a child-proof container at a room temperature between 59 and 86 degrees Fahrenheit. Protect your medication from light and moisture.

What happens if I overdose on Klor-Con M20?

Signs of overdose on Klor-Con 20 include those of hyperkalemia: nausea, muscle weakness, slow pulse, irregular heartbeat, and numbness or tingling sensations. A potassium overdose can result in heart failure and sudden death. If you think you or someone you know has overdosed on Klor-Con 20, contact the Poison Control Center at 1-800-222-1222 or go to the emergency room.

Warnings

Excessive ingestion of potassium chloride can cause hyperkalemia. Have your blood tested regularly while taking Klor-Con M20.
