Information about Alkaston Tablet

Alkaston Tablet contains Magnesium citrate, Potassium citrate and Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) as main active ingredients.

Role of active ingredients:
Potassium citrate increases urinary citrate principally by modifying the renal handling of citrate, rather than by increasing the filtered load of citrate. The changes induced by potassium citrate tablets produce a urine that is less conducive to the crystallization of stone-forming salts (calcium oxalate, calcium phosphate and uric acid). Potassium citrate also inhibits the spontaneous nucleation of calcium oxalate and calcium phosphate (brushite).
Magnesium citrate inhibits the formation of calcium-oxalate crystals in the urine.
Pyridoxine decreases liver production of oxalate and magnesium binds it in the gut to prevent it being reabsorbed and producing calcium oxalate stones in the kidney.

Alkaston Tablet is used for:
Optimal maintenance of salt balance,
Prevention and/or treatment of kidney stones,
To promote optimal kidney health,
To prevent calcium oxalate kidney stones.

Use under medical supervision.

Hi! According to USG test I got a cal of 8 mm in my left VUJ. Consulted with an urologist and prescribed with tasulin 0.4, levofloxacin 500 and alkaston b6 syrup. He asked me to see him after 7 days. If things go good then its good. Else I need to go through surgery. My question is there no other option but surgery? What are the diets I should follow? Help me I do not want to go through surgery.

hello. the doctor has prescribed appropriate medication to you. you need to drink atleast 4 to 5 lit of water so that the calculus wash off with urine. 8 mm size is a borderline size. you can avoid surgery but if medical therapy fails you can opt for surgery. now a days URS is done. no incision. stone will be removed through cystoscope. thanks
