Potassium citrate Prescription Medicines in the Philippines

K-CITRIZ Potassium Citrate is used for the management of various kidney stone conditions, including hypocitraturic calcium oxalate nephrolithiasis and uric acid lithiasis. This medication works by increasing the alkalinity of the urine, which helps prevent the formation of new kidney stones and can also aid in dissolving existing ones. It is also prescribed for treating metabolic problems such as renal tubular acidosis, where there is a high acid level in the body. The resulting changes in urine composition make it less favorable for the crystallization of stone-forming salts.
