Description
Potassium Citrate 1100mg, Magnesium Citrate 375mg, and Pyridoxine HCL 20mg Syrup
Potassium Citrate+ Magnesium Citrate+ Pyridoxine Hydrochloride drug is used for the treatment of renal tubular acidosis and kidney stones. These compositions are also useful in treating burning during urination. Kidney stones are small, hard deposits composed of calcium, phosphate, and other minerals/acid salts formed by sticking these substances together with concentrated urine. Renal tubular acidosis is the failure of the kidneys to excrete acids in the urine, which then causes the blood to remain too acidic.
Potassium Citrate+ Magnesium Citrate+ Pyridoxine Hydrochloride is a mixture of three drugs: Magnesium citrate Potassium citrate Pyridoxine hydrochloride Potassium Citrate+ magnesium Citrate + pyridoxine Hydrochloride increases urinary pH and potassium and magnesium and citric acid prevents the crystallization growth and accumulation of stone-forming salts.
Benefits

How does it Work?
Potassium Citrate + Magnesium Citrate + Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine) is the combination of three medicines: Potassium Citrate, Magnesium Citrate, and Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine), which prevent the formation of stones in the kidney. Potassium Citrate and Magnesium Citrate increase urine pH and stop the formation, growth, and accumulation of crystals inside the kidneys; hence, preventing stones. Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine) has been added to this combination, as its deficiency is associated with increased synthesis of oxalate, which forms one of the constituents of stones in the kidneys.
