What is the difference between Klor-Con M10 and MEQ 8? I can't swallow the M10, and my husband takes 8MEQ which is easy to swallow.

Inactive ingredients:

2. Blue capsule with the words UPSHER SMITH 0101 KCl 8MEQ. (NDC 66758-202, among others). Brand: Klor-Con Sprinkle. Contains Potassium Chloride 600 mg, extended release.
Inactive ingredients:
- Ethylcelluloses
- Talc
- Gelatin

Roy Says:Re: Bernie (# 3)
Hi bernie, apologies that I haven't been by here for a few days. Hmmm, I could not find any pills listed which have the inscription m8. This is after checking with the NIH pill identifier among others. The m8 is the only marking? I thought you wrote something different for your original message?

Roy Says:Re: Bernie (# 5)
No problem and sorry I didn't have something more definitive based on the m8 imprint. If you happen to find out what it is, can you please let me know too?
