Medicinal Benefits

K-Cit Oral Solution is a combination of two medicines: Citric acid and Potassium citrate,  primarily used to prevent gout and kidney stones and treat metabolic acidosis in patients with kidney diseases. Citric acid prevents the formation of deposits by binding with the salts and also breaks down the small deposits that are beginning to form. Potassium citrate is alkaline in nature and works by neutralizing the acids in the blood and urine. K-Cit Oral Solution effectively reduces the crystallization of stone-forming salts such as calcium oxalate (in kidney stones) and uric acid (in gout).

Uses of K-Cit Oral Solution

Gout, Kidney stones, and Metabolic acidosis

About K-Cit Oral Solution

K-Cit Oral Solution belongs to the class of medications called ‘alkalinizing agents’ used to prevent gout and kidney stones and treat metabolic acidosis in patients with kidney diseases. Gout is a type of arthritis in which uric acid crystals are deposited in the joints leading to severe pain, redness, and swelling. A kidney stone is a condition in which hard deposits are accumulated in the kidney forming stones. Metabolic acidosis is a condition in which excess acid is accumulated in the body due to kidney failure.

K-Cit Oral Solution combines two medicines: Citric acid and Potassium citrate. Citric acid prevents the formation of deposits by binding with the salts and also breaks down the small deposits that are beginning to form. Potassium citrate is alkaline in nature and works by neutralizing the acids in the blood and urine, thereby preventing the accumulation of salts in the body.

K-Cit Oral Solution is available in the form of oral liquid. You should take this medicine as prescribed by your doctor. K-Cit Oral Solution may cause side effects such as diarrhoea, stomach upset, nausea, and vomiting. These side effects are mild and temporary.

To treat your condition, continue taking K-Cit Oral Solution for as long as your doctor has prescribed it. Do not take K-Cit Oral Solution if you are allergic to Citric acid, potassium citrate, or other ingredients.
