Name:Potassium citrate Synonyms:Tripotassiumcitrate;2-Hydroxy-1,2,3-propanetricarboxyli cacid tripotassium salt Molecular Formula:C6H5K3O7 Molecular Weight:306.37 CAS Registry Number:866-84-2 EINECS:212-755-5 Potassium citrate may be used to control kidney stones due to either uric acid or cystine. Potassium citrate is rapidly absorbed when given by mouth and is excreted in the urine as the carbonate. It is, therefore, effective in reducing the pain and frequency of micturition when these are caused by highly acidic urine. It is used for this purpose in dogs and cats, but is chiefly employed as a non-irritating diuretic. Potassium citrate is an effective way to treat/manage gout and arrhythmia, if the patient is hypokalemic. In common with other substances that render the urine alkaline, it may be used to reduce the danger of crystalluria during sulfonamide therapy.
