Potassium Citrate is indicated for the management of renal tubular acidosis (RTA) with calcium stones, hypocitraturic calcium oxalate nephrolithiasis of any etiology, and uric acid lithiasis with or without calcium stones.

This is not a substitute for consulting your doctor. Seek professional advice if you are experiencing any illness or symptoms.

In patients with severe hypocitraturia (urinary citrate of less than 150 mg/day), therapy should be initiated at a dosage of 60 mEq/day (20 mEq 3 times/day or 12 mEq 4 times/day with meals or within 30 minutes after meals or bedtime snack). In patients with mild-moderate hypocitraturia (>150 mg/day), Potassium Citrate tablet should be initiated at dosage of 30 mEq/day (10 mEq 3 times/day with meals). 24 hour urinary citrate and/or urinary pH measurements should be used to determine the adequacy of the initial dosage and to evaluate the effectiveness of any dosage change. In addition, urinary citrate and/ or pH should be measured every 4 months. Or as prescribe by the physician.

Should be taken with food: Swallow whole, do not crush/chew/suck.
