Potassium, Magnesium and Vitamin B6 syrup work by providing nutrients that help prevent kidney stone formation and support overall health. Potassium citrate increases urinary citrate levels and makes urine less acidic, helping prevent stone formation. Magnesium citrate reduces the formation of calcium oxalate crystals in the urinary tract. Pyridoxine (Vitamin B6) helps reduce oxalate production and supports normal metabolism, nerve function, and red blood cell formation. Together, they help maintain urinary health and reduce the risk of recurrent kidney stones.
