Klor-Con ® M10 (potassium chloride extended-release tablets, USP) is an immediately dispersing extended-release oral dosage form of potassium chloride containing 750 mg of microencapsulated potassium chloride, USP equivalent to 10 mEq of potassium in a tablet. Klor-Con ® M15 (potassium chloride extended-release tablets, USP) is an immediately dispersing extended-release oral dosage form of potassium chloride containing 1,125 mg of microencapsulated potassium chloride, USP equivalent to 15 mEq of potassium in a tablet. Klor-Con ® M20 (potassium chloride extended-release tablets, USP) is an immediately dispersing extended-release oral dosage form of potassium chloride containing 1,500 mg of microencapsulated potassium chloride, USP equivalent to 20 mEq of potassium in a tablet. These formulations are intended to slow the release of potassium so that the likelihood of a high localized concentration of potassium chloride within the gastrointestinal tract is reduced. Klor-Con ® M is an electrolyte replenisher. The chemical name of the active ingredient is potassium chloride, and the structural formula is KCl. Potassium chloride, USP occurs as a white, granular powder or as colorless crystals. It is odorless and has a saline taste. Its solutions are neutral to litmus. It is freely soluble in water and insoluble in alcohol. Klor-Con ® M is a tablet formulation (not enteric-coated or wax matrix) containing individually microencapsulated potassium chloride crystals which disperse upon tablet disintegration. In simulated gastric fluid at 37°C and in the absence of outside agitation, Klor-Con ® M begins disintegrating into microencapsulated crystals within seconds and completely disintegrates within 1 minute. The microencapsulated crystals are formulated to provide an extended-release of potassium chloride, USP. Inactive Ingredients : croscarmellose sodium, ethylcellulose and microcrystalline cellulose.
