SODIUM CITRATE AND CITRIC ACID ORAL SOLUTION USP
A Sugar-Free Systemic Alkalizer
DESCRIPTION
Sodium Citrate and Citric Acid Oral Solution USP is a stable and
pleasant-tasting systemic alkalizer
containing sodium citrate and citric acid in a sugar-free base. It is
a nonparticulate neutralizing buffer.
Sodium Citrate and Citric Acid Oral Solution USP contains in each
teaspoonful (5 mL):
SODIUM CITRATE Dihydrate 500 mg (0.34 Molar)
CITRIC ACID Monohydrate 334 mg (0.32 Molar)
Each mL contains 1 mEq sodium ion and is equivalent to 1 mEq
bicarbonate (HCO3).
INACTIVE INGREDIENTS: Flavoring, polyethylene glycol, propylene
glycol, purified water, sodium
benzoate, and sorbitol solution.
CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Sodium citrate is absorbed and metabolized to sodium 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
sodium citrate is excreted in the
urine unchanged.
INDICATIONS AND USAGE
