Pharmacological Therapy for Calcium Phosphate Urolithiasis

The investigators will examine in two studies whether citric acid or potassium citrate can
reduce calcium phosphate saturation in urine of Calcium Phosphate stone formers.

We will examine in two short-term placebo-controlled cross-over metabolic studies whether
citric acid or potassium citrate can reduce calcium phosphate saturation in urine of CaP
stone formers. The first study will be conducted in hypocitraturic CaP stone formers without
hypercalciuria, and will compare the effects of potassium citrate, citric acid and placebo.

The second study will be conducted in hypercalciuric CaP stone formers on a thiazide diuretic
who require potassium supplementation, and will compare the effects of potassium chloride
alone, potassium chloride + citric acid, and potassium citrate alone. Physicochemical assays
will be applied in addition to computer-based stone risk prediction programs to assess risk
of stone recurrence.

- >21 years
