Description
Leader Potassium Citrate and Citric Acid Oral Solution USP is a pharmaceutical-grade medication designed to prevent kidney stone formation and treat certain urinary conditions. This prescription-strength solution contains precisely measured amounts of potassium citrate and citric acid that work synergistically to alkalize urine and reduce the risk of calcium oxalate and uric acid kidney stones. The 16-ounce bottle provides a convenient liquid formulation that's easier to swallow than large tablets, making it ideal for patients who have difficulty with solid medications. This USP-grade solution meets strict pharmaceutical standards for purity, potency, and quality. Potassium citrate helps increase urinary citrate levels, which naturally inhibits stone formation by binding with calcium and preventing crystallization. The citric acid component enhances absorption and provides additional alkalizing effects. This medication is commonly prescribed by urologists and nephrologists for patients with recurrent kidney stones, renal tubular acidosis, or hypocitraturia. The liquid format allows for precise dosing and better patient compliance compared to multiple daily tablets. Leader's pharmaceutical division ensures consistent quality and reliability that healthcare providers trust for their patients' therapeutic needs.
Suggested Use
Take as directed by your healthcare provider, typically 15-30 mL diluted in water 2-4 times daily after meals and at bedtime. Mix the prescribed dose with 6-8 ounces of water or juice to improve taste and reduce stomach upset. Take with food to minimize gastrointestinal side effects. Do not exceed prescribed dosage and maintain regular follow-up appointments with your healthcare provider for monitoring.
