Description:
Renalka Syrup contains disodium hydrogen citrate, a medication used as a urinary alkalinizer. When ingested, disodium hydrogen citrate is metabolized in the body to bicarbonate, which increases the pH of the urine, making it less acidic. This alkalinizing effect on urine has several therapeutic applications, primarily in the management of conditions related to urinary acidity and certain metabolic disorders.
One of the main uses of Renalka Syrup is to relieve the symptoms of urinary tract infections (UTIs), particularly dysuria (painful urination) and increased urinary frequency. While it does not directly kill the bacteria causing the infection, alkalinizing the urine can create a less favorable environment for bacterial growth and may enhance the effectiveness of certain antibiotics. Additionally, the increased pH can help to soothe the inflamed urinary tract lining, providing symptomatic relief.
Renalka Syrup is also indicated for the prevention and treatment of uric acid stones and cystine stones in the kidneys. Uric acid is more soluble in alkaline urine, so increasing the urinary pH can help to dissolve existing uric acid stones and prevent the formation of new ones. Similarly, alkalinizing the urine can increase the solubility of cystine, an amino acid that can form kidney stones in individuals with cystinuria, a genetic disorder. By making the urine less acidic, Renalka Syrup helps to reduce the concentration of uric acid or cystine, thereby decreasing the risk of stone formation.
Furthermore, Renalka Syrup may be used to manage metabolic acidosis, a condition characterized by an excess of acid in the body fluids. By providing bicarbonate precursors, it can help to neutralize the excess acid and restore the body’s pH balance. This is particularly relevant in conditions such as renal tubular acidosis.
