Citric Acid 334mg + Potassium Citrate 1100mg Syrup per 5ml

Suspension
200ml Bottle

Potassium Citrate (1100mg) and Magnesium Citrate (375mg, with or without Pyridoxine 20mg or Citric Acid 334mg per 5ml) Oral Solution is a specialized dual-mineral nephrolithiasis inhibitor on the PMBI formulary. Absorbed citrate is metabolized to bicarbonate, alkalinizing the urine and increasing urinary citrate excretion. Citrate forms soluble chelates with calcium, preventing calcium oxalate and calcium phosphate crystal nucleation and agglomeration. Magnesium competes with calcium to form highly soluble magnesium oxalate, further retarding stone growth. Pyridoxine (vitamin B6) acts as a cofactor for alanine:glyoxylate aminotransferase, reducing endogenous oxalate production. Indicated for renal tubular acidosis (RTA) with calcium stones, hypocitraturic calcium oxalate nephrolithiasis, and uric acid lithiasis.
