Verified Ingredients and Effects

Uses:

Reduction of acidity of the urine and prevention of kidney stones and gout. Prevent and treat diabetic ketoacidosis.

Medicinal Benefits:

Potrate-SF 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. Potrate-SF Oral Solution effectively reduces the crystallization of stone-forming salts such as calcium oxalate (in kidney stones) and uric acid (in gout).
