Consumer:Ask your doctor before using aluminum hydroxide together with citric acid. Using these medications together can increase the effects of aluminum hydroxide which could result in too high of aluminum blood levels. If you have end-stage renal disease you are particularly at risk of developing high aluminum blood levels and encephalopathy (brain disease). You should separate doses of aluminum hydroxideand citric acid by 2 to 3 hours. You may need a dose adjustment or special test if you use both medications. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.
Professional:GENERALLY AVOID: The concomitant administration of aluminum-containing products (e.g., antacids and phosphate binders) and citrates may significantly increase serum aluminum concentrations, resulting in toxicity. Citrates enhance the gastrointestinal absorption of aluminum by an unknown mechanism, which may involve the formation of a soluble aluminum-citrate complex. Various studies have reported that citrate increases aluminum absorption by 4.6- to 50-fold in healthy subjects. Patients with end-stage renal disease are particularly at risk of developing hyperaluminemia and encephalopathy. Fatalities have been reported.
MANAGEMENT: The concomitant use of aluminum- and citrate-containing products should be avoided in renally impaired patients. Some experts also recommend that healthy patients should separate doses of aluminum-containing antacids and citrates by 2 to 3 hours.
