Consumer:Talk to your doctor before using potassium citrate together with ciprofloxacin. Potassium citrate can change the acidity of your urine, which may cause ciprofloxacin to crystallize and form stones. This may also occur if you are dehydrated, so you should drink plenty of fluids during treatment with ciprofloxacin. Let your doctor know if you experience flank pain, painful urination, or blood in the urine. 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: Urinary alkalinizers such as citrates may decrease the solubility of fluoroquinolones in the urine and increase the risk of crystalluria.
MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use should generally be avoided. Patients receiving this combination should be monitored for signs of renal toxicity and crystalluria.
