About Urofit Syrup

Urofit Syrup is indicated for the treatment of renal tubular acidosis and kidney stones. It also helps alleviate burning sensations during urination. Kidney stones are small, hard deposits made up of calcium, phosphate and other minerals/acid salts that stick together in concentrated urine. Renal tubular acidosis is a condition in which the kidneys fail to excrete acids into the urine, which causes the blood to remain too acidic.

Urofit Syrup is a combination of three drugs, namely: Magnesium citrate, Potassium citrate, and Pyridoxine. Urofit Syrup raises the urinary pH, potassium, magnesium, and citric acid levels, which prevents the crystallisation, growth, and accumulation of stone-forming salts.

You are advised to take Urofit Syrup for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience common side effects such as abdominal discomfort, diarrhoea, nausea, and vomiting. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if the side effects persist or worsen.

Before taking the Urofit Syrup , let your doctor know about all your medical conditions, sensitivities, and all medications you are using. And also inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding. Urofit Syrup is not recommended for children as safety and effectiveness have not been established.

Uses of Urofit Syrup

Urofit Syrup is a combination medication containing magnesium citrate, potassium citrate, and pyridoxine (vitamin B6). It is primarily used to manage and prevent certain kidney-related conditions. The detailed uses of Urofit Syrup are as follows:

  • Prevention and treatment of kidney stones: Urofit Syrup helps prevent the formation of calcium oxalate and uric acid kidney stones by alkalinising the urine and reducing urinary oxalate levels.
  • Management of renal tubular acidosis (RTA): Urofit Syrup is used to treat RTA by correcting the body's acid-base balance, thereby preventing stone formation and bone demineralization.
