Thanks! They will; just not quite as quickly as they used to.

I did wake up thirsty and slightly headachy Sat. morning. When I realized what I had done, I took the diuretic w/o taking another potassium. I haven't noticed any other problems. I loathe taking medications. I really need to swear off diet coke, frozen dinners, and fast food.

It does sound strange that the warnings on the potassium would be scarier than the warnings on the diuretic. Just make sure to call the doctor if you notice any of those side effects, and don't be taking the wrong pill again! I'm glad the combination seems to be working for you.
