About MAGNESIUM CITRATE+POTASSIUM CITRATE+PYRIDOXINE
MAGNESIUM CITRATE+POTASSIUM CITRATE+PYRIDOXINE is indicated for the treatment of renal tubular acidosis and kidney stones. It also helps provide relief from 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. Renal tubular acidosis is a condition in which the kidneys fail to excrete acids into the urine, this causes the blood to remain too acidic.
MAGNESIUM CITRATE+POTASSIUM CITRATE+PYRIDOXINE is a combination of three drugs, namely: Magnesium citrate, Potassium citrate, and Pyridoxine. MAGNESIUM CITRATE+POTASSIUM CITRATE+PYRIDOXINE raises the urinary pH, potassium, magnesium and citric acid levels; this prevents the crystallisation, growth and accumulation of stone-forming salts.
You are advised to take MAGNESIUM CITRATE+POTASSIUM CITRATE+PYRIDOXINE 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.
Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. MAGNESIUM CITRATE+POTASSIUM CITRATE+PYRIDOXINE is not recommended for children as safety and effectiveness have not been established. MAGNESIUM CITRATE+POTASSIUM CITRATE+PYRIDOXINE is not recommended for patients with renal insufficiency as it might increase the risk of developing hyperkalaemia (high potassium levels) and soft tissue calcification. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and medicines to rule out any side effects.

Patients Concern
Disease/Condition Glossary
Kidney stones: Nephrolithiasis, also known as kidney stones, is a disease affecting the urinary tract. Kidney stones are small, hard deposits made up of calcium, phosphate and other minerals/acid salts that stick together in concentrated urine. They are the common cause of blood in urine and can be painful when passing through the urinary tract. Symptoms include severe pain, usually in one side of the abdomen and nausea.
Renal tubular acidosis: It is a condition that involves the accumulation of acid in the body due to the failure of the kidneys to acidify the urine appropriately. The kidneys fail to excrete acids into the urine, which causes the blood to remain too acidic. If not treated, it could lead to kidney stones, bone disease, kidney disease or failure.
