Uralyt U Granules

Uralyt U Granules

Description:

Uralyt U Granules are an oral urinary alkalinizing medicine formulated to help dissolve and prevent certain types of kidney stones and to manage conditions associated with acidic urine. Each effervescent granule dose contains potassium sodium hydrogen citrate, which increases urinary pH and citrate levels, reducing the formation of uric acid and some calcium-containing stones. This product is typically used under medical supervision as part of the treatment and prevention of nephrolithiasis and gout-related urinary complications.

Indications:

• Prevention and treatment of kidney stones (nephrolithiasis) caused by uric acid and certain calcium stones, as directed by a physician.
• Urinary alkalinization in patients with persistently acidic urine to reduce the risk of uric acid crystal and stone formation.
• Adjunctive therapy in gout and hyperuricemia when urinary alkalinization is required to aid uric acid excretion (as prescribed by a doctor).
• Conditions where increasing urinary citrate and pH is clinically indicated, according to medical advice.

Active Ingredients / Key Components:

• Potassium sodium hydrogen citrate – concentration per dose is not clearly available in the provided data; refer to the product packaging or leaflet for exact mg content.
• Each presentation is labeled as effervescent granules 280 mg; detailed breakdown of each ion (potassium, sodium, citrate) is not available here and should be confirmed from the official leaflet.

Dosage & Administration / How to Use:

• Use only as prescribed by a physician. Dosage is individualized based on urinary pH, type of kidney stone, and clinical condition.
• Typical use: the prescribed amount of granules is dissolved in a glass of water and taken orally. Do not take the granules undissolved.
• Usually taken in divided doses throughout the day (for example, 2–3 times daily), with or after meals, to reduce gastrointestinal discomfort. Exact regimen must follow your doctor’s instructions.
• Urinary pH may need to be monitored regularly (e.g., with test strips) to adjust the dose and maintain the target pH range specified by your doctor.
• Swallow the prepared solution immediately after the granules have fully dissolved. Do not exceed the prescribed daily dose.
• If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it is almost time for the next dose. Do not double the dose to make up for a missed one.

Clinical Benefits:

• Helps alkalinize the urine, increasing urinary pH to reduce uric acid crystallization and stone formation.
• Supports dissolution of existing uric acid kidney stones when used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan under medical supervision.
• Increases urinary citrate levels, which can help reduce the formation of certain calcium-containing kidney stones.
• Assists in the management of conditions associated with acidic urine, such as gout-related uric acid deposition in the urinary tract.

Warnings & Contraindications:

• Do not use Uralyt U Granules if you are allergic (hypersensitive) to potassium sodium hydrogen citrate or any of the excipients listed in the product leaflet.
• Contraindicated in patients with severe renal impairment, anuria, or conditions with impaired potassium excretion (e.g., severe renal failure, untreated Addison’s disease) due to the risk of hyperkalemia.
• Use with caution in patients with heart disease, hypertension, edema, or those on sodium-restricted diets, as the product contains sodium.
• Use with caution in patients taking potassium-sparing diuretics, ACE inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), or other medicines that increase serum potassium, due to the risk of hyperkalemia.
• Patients with peptic ulcer disease or significant gastrointestinal disorders should use this product only under close medical supervision.
• Consult your doctor before use if pregnant, nursing, taking other medications, or if you have medical conditions such as kidney disease, heart disease, high blood pressure, or electrolyte imbalances.
• Not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease without proper medical evaluation and prescription.
• Keep out of reach of children.
• Do not exceed the recommended dose. Prolonged or excessive use without monitoring may lead to electrolyte disturbances or metabolic alkalosis.

Side Effects:

• Common side effects may include mild gastrointestinal discomfort such as nausea, stomach pain, bloating, or diarrhea, especially if taken on an empty stomach.
• Electrolyte disturbances can occur, including hyperkalemia (high potassium) or hypernatremia (high sodium), particularly in patients with renal impairment or those taking interacting medications.
• Metabolic alkalosis may develop if urinary alkalinization is excessive or if used in high doses for prolonged periods.
• Allergic reactions (rash, itching, swelling, dizziness, difficulty breathing) are rare but require immediate medical attention.
• Seek urgent medical help if you experience muscle weakness, irregular heartbeat, severe vomiting, confusion, or difficulty breathing, as these may be signs of serious electrolyte imbalance.
