Citra-K Tablet 1080 mg contains Potassium Citrate, a potassium salt that helps maintain the body’s electrolyte balance and prevent complications associated with low potassium levels (hypokalemia). It is widely used in conditions where potassium depletion occurs due to diuretics, excessive sweating, vomiting, diarrhea, or certain kidney disorders.

Potassium is an essential mineral that supports muscle function, nerve signaling, and heart rhythm. Citra-K Tablet 1080 mg is a convenient oral formulation that provides a precise dose of potassium, helping restore and maintain healthy potassium levels in the body. Additionally, Potassium Citrate acts as an urinary alkalinizer, making the urine less acidic, which can prevent the formation of uric acid and cystine kidney stones.

How Citra-K Works

Citra-K Tablet works through two primary mechanisms:

• Potassium supplementation: Replenishes potassium lost due to medical conditions, medications, or dietary insufficiency, helping maintain proper cellular function and heart health.

• Urine alkalinization: Potassium citrate increases urinary pH, reducing acidity in urine, which helps prevent certain types of kidney stones and supports kidney health.

By maintaining potassium levels and balancing urinary pH, Citra-K supports cardiovascular, muscular, and renal health simultaneously.

Indications

Citra-K Tablet 1080 mg is indicated for:

• Prevention and treatment of hypokalemia (low potassium levels)

• Patients taking diuretics or medications that increase potassium loss

• Management and prevention of urinary stones, particularly uric acid and cystine stones

• Conditions requiring urinary alkalinization

• Supporting overall electrolyte balance in patients with potassium deficiency

This medication is generally used under medical supervision, especially in patients with kidney disorders or other systemic conditions.

Dosage and Administration

The dosage of Citra-K Tablet should be determined by a physician based on the patient’s condition, potassium levels, and kidney function. General guidelines include:

• Usually taken once or multiple times daily as prescribed

• Swallow the tablet whole with water; do not crush or chew

• Can be taken with or without food, though taking with meals may reduce gastrointestinal discomfort

• Regular monitoring of blood potassium levels is recommended to avoid over- or under-dosing

Patients should not adjust their dose without consulting their healthcare provider.

Precautions and Warnings

• Consult your doctor if you have kidney disease, heart conditions, or are on potassium-sparing medications.

• Avoid excessive intake, as high potassium (hyperkalemia) can cause serious heart rhythm disturbances.

• Not recommended for patients with severe hyperkalemia or untreated kidney failure.

• Inform your healthcare provider about all medications, supplements, and medical conditions before starting therapy.
