How should I use Oracit?

ORACIT is indicated for the treatment of metabolic acidosis. This solution is also useful in conditions where long term maintenance of alkaline urine is needed (e.g. uric acid and cystine calculi of the urinary tract). ORACIT is also effective in treatment for acidosis of certain renal tubular disorders.

The dose of ORACIT is 10 to 30 mL, diluted with water, after meals and at bedtime. The dose should be titrated to achieve desired effects.


What interacts with Oracit?

ORACIT is contraindicated in patients with severe renal impairment, oliguria or azotemia, untreated Addison's disease, adynamia episodica hereditaria, acute dehydration, heat cramp, anuria, severe myocardial damage, and hyperkalemia.



What are the warnings of Oracit?

Sorry No Records found


What are the precautions of Oracit?

The citrate solution should be used with caution in patients with impaired renal function to avoid hypernatremia or alkalosis in the presence of hypocalcemia. Periodic determinations of serum electrolyte levels (especially bicarbonate levels) should be done in patients with renal disease to avoid cardiac failure, hypertension, peripheral and pulmonary edema, and toxemia of pregnancy. The solution should be diluted with water and preferably taken after meals to avoid saline laxative effects.


What are the side effects of Oracit?

Citrate solution is generally well tolerated when given in recommended doses when the patient has normal renal functions.
