Same salt, different brand — what does that mean?
A substitute contains the same active ingredient (salt), in the same strength, as Citralka Liquid. The brand name, manufacturer, inactive ingredients and price can differ, and so can release form, so a substitute is not automatically interchangeable.
All medicines sold in India, branded or generic, must meet the quality standards set by the national drug regulator (CDSCO). A lower price does not mean lower quality.
Please confirm with your doctor or pharmacist before switching brands — they will check that the strength and form match your prescription.

Uses of Citralka Liquid

- Metabolic acidosis (as prescribed)
- Adjunct in urinary tract infections

Benefits of Citralka Liquid
- In Burning during urination
- Citralka makes the urine less acidic, which soothes the burning and stinging when passing urine while the cause is treated.
- In Urinary tract discomfort
- Citralka relieves the discomfort, urgency and irritation of a bladder that is inflamed or infected, alongside plenty of fluids and any antibiotic prescribed.
- In Prevention of urinary stones
- Citralka changes the chemistry of the urine so that stone-forming crystals are less likely to form and small stones are easier to pass.
How Citralka Liquid works
Disodium hydrogen citrate is metabolized to bicarbonate, increasing urinary pH. Alkaline urine reduces irritation during urination and helps dissolve/prevent uric acid stone formation.
