Magstone B6 Oral Solution 200 ml

Magstone B6 Oral Solution is indicated for the treatment of renal tubular acidosis and kidney stones. It also helps provide relief from a 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.
 
Magstone B6 Oral Solution is a combination of two drugs, namely: Potassium magnesium citrate and Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine). Magstone B6 Oral Solution raises the urinary pH, potassium, magnesium, and citric acid levels; this prevents the crystallization, growth, and accumulation of stone-forming salts. Thereby, Magstone B6 Oral Solution helps treat renal tubular acidosis and kidney stones.
 
Take Magstone B6 Oral Solution as advised by the doctor. 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 you experience these side effects persistently.

• Drink plenty of fluids as it helps in flushing out excess minerals.

• Limit salt intake. High amounts of salt can increase the risk of kidney stones.

• Maintain a healthy weight by exercising regularly.

• Avoid foods rich in oxalates, such as spinach, nuts, dates, avocado, hot chocolate, cocoa, baked potato, french fries, and cereals, as they might increase the risk of oxalate stones.

• Try maintaining optimum levels of calcium in the body, as too little or high calcium can lead to kidney stones.

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.
