About Alkaston-B6 Syrup
Alkaston-B6 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.
Alkaston-B6 Syrup is a combination of three drugs, namely: Magnesium citrate, Potassium citrate, and Pyridoxine. Alkaston-B6 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 Alkaston-B6 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 Alkaston-B6 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. Alkaston-B6 Syrup is not recommended for children as safety and effectiveness have not been established.
