CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Potassium citrate is absorbed and metabolized to potassium
bicarbonate, thus acting as a systemic
alkalizer. The effects are essentially those of chlorides before
absorption and those of bicarbonates
subsequently. Oxidation is virtually complete so that less than 5% of
the potassium citrate is excreted in
the urine unchanged.
INDICATIONS AND USAGE
Potassium Citrate - Citric Acid Crystals is an effective alkalinizing
agent useful in those conditions
where long-term maintenance of an alkaline urine is desirable, such as
in patients with uric acid and
cystine calculi of the urinary tract, especially when the
administration of sodium salts is
