I have a clear capsule with Ethex and 001 on it. Can you tell me what this is and what it is used for? Thank you.

The pill in description is Potassium Chloride SR 10 MEQ (NDC 58177-001).

Ethex 001 capsule

Potassium chloride has many uses such as being a sodium-free substitute for table salt (sodium chloride). Research I have gathered states that this pill works by providing a direct replacement of potassium in the body.

Inactive Ingredients:

- Calcium Stearate
- Gelatin
- Isopropyl Alcohol
- Pharmaceutical Glaze
- Povidone
- Sugar Spheres
- Talc

Potassium chloride is in the class of drugs called potassium supplements that are used to prevent hypokalaemia.

NOTE: Orally, KCl is toxic in excess.

After reading all of the questions and replies, I am still mildly confused as to the difference if any in the CR and SR that appears after Potassium Chl. I get the CR is Controlled Release but is SR for Sodium Free? This supplement has a lot of different letters associalted with it and can make it confusing to know exactly how much you are taking and what you should or should not take.
