About Alkaston-B6 Oral Solution

Alkaston-B6 Oral Solution is used in the treatment of renal tubular acidosis and kidney stones. It also helps relieve the burning sensation during urination. Kidney stones are small, hard deposits made up of calcium, phosphate, and other minerals/acid salts that stick together in concentrated urine.

Alkaston-B6 Oral Solution is a combination of three drugs: Magnesium citrate, Potassium citrate, and Pyridoxine hydrochloride. Alkaston-B6 Oral Solution raises the urinary pH, potassium, magnesium, and citric acid levels; this prevents the crystallization, growth, and accumulation of stone-forming salts.
