2. Sodium cellulose phosphate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_cellulose_phosphate

   Sodium cellulose phosphate is a drug used to treat hypercalcemia and hypercalciuria. It has been investigating for the prevention of kidney stones, [1] [2] but with limited efficacy. [3] This compound is an ion-exchange resin that can not be absorbed by the body. However, it can be used to restore the normal intestinal calcium absorption.

3. Alkali citrate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkali_citrate

   Alkaline citrates are used to prevent recurrent calcium stone formation. [13] [14] [15] [5] This is one of the major types of kidney stones. [16] [17] The citrate salts can increase urine citrate, which binds with urine calcium, reduces supersaturation of calcium salts, and inhibits crystal formation. [18] [8] This helps prevent kidney stones ...

4. Potassium citrate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_citrate

   Potassium citrate (also known as tripotassium citrate) is a potassium salt of citric acid with the molecular formula K 3 C 6 H 5 O 7. It is a white, hygroscopic crystalline powder. It is odorless with a saline taste. It contains 38.28% potassium by mass. In the monohydrate form, it is highly hygroscopic and deliquescent.

5. Citric acid/potassium-sodium citrate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citric_acid/potassium...

   Citric acid/potassium-sodium citrate is a drug used in the treatment of metabolic acidosis (a disorder in which the blood is too acidic). It is made up of citrate (the weak base of citric acid), a sodium cation and potassium cation. It can also be used for the treatment of kidney stones [1] by treating hypocitraturia. [2]

6. Kidney stone disease - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kidney_stone_disease

   Kidney stone disease, also known as renal calculus disease, nephrolithiasis or urolithiasis, is a crystallopathy where a solid piece of material (renal calculus) develops in the urinary tract. [2] Renal calculi typically form in the kidney and leave the body in the urine stream. [2] A small calculus may pass without causing symptoms. [2]

7. Hydroxycitric acid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroxycitric_acid

   Researchers at the University of Houston reported hydroxycitrate is capable of dissolving calcium oxalate crystals, a component of human kidney stones. Recent studies (2019) shows kidney stones are layered and the stones may form and dissolve with time. The researchers believe the effect could lead to the development of new drugs for human ...
