Comments about Vitamin Shoppe Potassium Citrate (99 MG) - 100 Capsules:
Used regularly because of charlie horses and dehydration. I read that K+ helps bowel movements too. It is water soluble so you pee off what your body doesn't need. I find taking it every other day works good for me.

Comments about Vitamin Shoppe Potassium Citrate (99 MG) - 100 Capsules:
My medication caused extreme muscle weakness to the point where I had to crawl to get around. I will die without this medication so I started taking Potassium and all muscle weakness disappeared! Needless to say, I won't go anywhere else to purchase this vital mineral since Vitamin Shoppe has the best prices!

lost my med insurance so now I cannot afford my doctors prescriptions. One is : "pot citrate er tabs 100's made by usher-smith. I take it to prevent uric acid kidney stones. My question is can I take these, over the counter drugs instead ? Obviously the cheaper cost is a major factor.
also, 100's is written on my last prescrip bottle. I thought amounts were always mg ? whats the equvlnt to this "100s" written on my prescrip bottle ?
thank you, matthew Feb 18, 2013
The "100s" on your prescription for the Upsher-Smith product confuses me as I can't find that reference anywhere.
But I can't recommend two sites with excellent advice for self-care given a history of uric acid kidney stones--the National Institutes of Health and WebMD.
It appears the 99mg potassium citrate from the Vitamin Shoppe taken three times a day may be the equivalent of what you were taking. Feb 19, 2013
Over-the-counter potassium citrate should be OK as long as you stay with a reputable brand name.
The mg amount on most of the potassium citrate brands I have seen list the mg amount as "99." Close enough I think. Try to find your daily balance of salts: sodium, magnesium and potassium for optimal effect.
I hope this information helps you.
