I take 2 K-Dur 20 meq per week, for a potassium supplement prescribed by my

doc. Glad it is only twice a week, those are huge pills to swallow!

You lucky duck, I have to take 2 a day. I suspect that has something to

do with the 60 mg of lasix I take a day. Lori O.

I know what you mean! I think I was addicted to Lasix before the surgery,

because if I didn't take it...I blew up like a balloon. No more Lasix, no

more lotsa stuff. YAY! Would hate to be back on those big pills twice a day

with my pouch! Owie!
