About Citranorm-B6 Sugar Free Syrup

Citranorm-B6 Sugar Free Syrup is indicated for the treatment of renal tubular acidosis and kidney stones. It also helps provide relief from the 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.

Citranorm-B6 Sugar Free Syrup is a combination of three drugs: Magnesium citrate, Potassium citrate, and Pyridoxine hydrochloride. Citranorm-B6 Sugar Free Syrup raises the urinary pH, potassium, magnesium, and citric acid levels; this prevents the crystallization, growth, and accumulation of stone-forming salts.

Take Citranorm-B6 Sugar Free Syrup as prescribed. You are advised to take Citranorm-B6 Sugar Free Syrup for as long as your doctor has recommended it for you, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience certain 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.

Consult your doctor before taking Citranorm-B6 Sugar Free Syrup if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Disease/Condition Glossary

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: This 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.
