Long-term treatment of hypercalciuria with thiazides, sodium or potassium cellulose phosphate, separately or in
Abstract:
Urinary supersaturation in respect to brushite or calcium oxalate represents the main pathogenic factor in stone formation. Of the patients with calcium oxalate stones 30 to 40% present with hypercalciuria. Herein we determine and compare the effects and side effects in the treatment of hypercalciuria with sodium cellulose phosphate or Campanyl, a potassium versus calcium ion exchanger, and thiazides alone or in combination with an ion exchanger.
