What is Potassium Citrate and Trimetazidine Overview about?

Potassium citrate is used to treat metabolic acidosis and alkalinize urine. It can be used as an alternative to sodium bicarbonate for chronic metabolic acidosis from renal disorders. Initial doses are 30 mEq daily in divided doses, increasing to 60 mEq for severe cases. Potassium citrate should be taken with food and excessive doses can cause hypokalemia and metabolic alkalosis. Special precautions are needed for patients with renal or adrenal insufficiency.
