About Oxamil Syrup 450 ml
Oxamil Syrup 450 ml is indicated for the treatment of renal tubular acidosis and kidney stones. It also helps alleviate burning sensations 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, which causes the blood to remain too acidic.
Oxamil Syrup 450 ml is a combination of three drugs, namely: Magnesium citrate, Potassium citrate, and Pyridoxine. Oxamil Syrup 450 ml raises the urinary pH, potassium, magnesium, and citric acid levels, which prevents the crystallisation, growth, and accumulation of stone-forming salts.
You are advised to take Oxamil Syrup 450 ml for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience common side effects such as abdominal discomfort, diarrhoea, nausea, and vomiting.
