found in couch wat is it for a small white pill with lk 20 on it ## Hello, Ashley! How are you? From what I can find, this is listed as being a 20mg Ikorel tablet, it is a potassium channel opener, it increases the exit of potassium from certain muscle cells to widen the arteries and reduce the workload on the heart.
