Guest guest Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 I just picked up my potassium, and its yellow! made with dye. oh brother, wierd. So Ill send it back. Is there really a deep need to have it colored yellow? Subject: my potassium sagaTo: RT3_T3 Date: Thursday, June 25, 2009, 6:24 PM Well, I called my pharmacist and SURE ENOUGH they gave me a generic potassium. She said that they have many people on this and none of them are having any problems. I TOLD HER, I have NEVER been able to take generic anything, I have absorption problems. That was obvious with this last test. I am very sensitive to meds and fillers can cause problems for people and me. I asked her if selenium taken with potassium could be the problem and she looked it up and it is not a problem. SO now I will be getting K-DUR. How dare they do this without informing the patient. I asked her if I need to call my doctor for a different script which says NO SUBSTITUTES and she said no they could just do it on their own. How dare they fool around with my health AND this has been a problem as many of you know. IDIOTS! Sorry, I am upset. Thanks for letting me vent!Oh and Val, there is a slow release potassium and a regular, I asked. :)Venizia------------------------------------ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 Oh boy that would definitely cause me a problem. I would send it back also. These sensitivities are a pain in more ways than one. What kind of potassium do you have?
