About Alkamax Syrup
Alkamax Syrup is used to reduce the acidity of the urine. This function aids in the kidneys' elimination of uric acid, which helps to prevent kidney stones and gout. Additionally, Alkamax Syrup can be used to prevent and treat kidney disease-related metabolic issues such as diabetic ketoacidosis.
Alkamax Syrup combines two medicines: Citric acid and Potassium citrate. Citric acid prevents the formation of deposits by binding with the salts and also breaks down the small deposits that are beginning to form. Potassium citrate is alkaline in nature and works by neutralizing the acids in the blood and urine, thereby preventing the accumulation of salts in the body.
Alkamax Syrup is available in the form of oral liquid. You should take this medicine as prescribed by your doctor. Alkamax Syrup may cause side effects such as diarrhoea, stomach upset, nausea, and vomiting. These side effects are mild and temporary. However, inform your doctor if any of these side effects persist or get worse.
To treat your condition, continue taking Alkamax Syrup for as long as your doctor has prescribed it. Do not take Alkamax Syrup if you are allergic to Citric acid, potassium citrate, or other ingredients. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding before taking the Alkamax Syrup . It should not be used in patients with severe kidney failure, severe heart damage, severe dehydration, heat cramps, Addison’s disease (an adrenal gland disorder), or hyperkalemia (high blood potassium levels). Alkamax Syrup should not be given to children unless prescribed by a doctor. Avoid alcohol consumption while taking Alkamax Syrup as it might increase certain side-effects. Keep your doctor informed about all the medicines you are taking and your health condition to rule out any unpleasant side effects.

Medicinal Benefits
Alkamax Syrup is a combination of two medicines: Citric acid and Potassium citrate, primarily used to prevent gout and kidney stones and treat metabolic acidosis in patients with kidney diseases. Citric acid prevents the formation of deposits by binding with the salts and also breaks down the small deposits that are beginning to form. Potassium citrate is alkaline in nature and works by neutralizing the acids in the blood and urine. Alkamax Syrup effectively reduces the crystallization of stone-forming salts such as calcium oxalate (in kidney stones) and uric acid (in gout).
