Virtrate-2 (Sodium Citrate + Citric Acid) Oral Solution

Virtrate-2 Oral Solution belongs to a specific class of medications known as alkalizing agents, which are used to help with gout, kidney stones and treat metabolic acidosis in people suffering from kidney diseases.

It contains 2 ingredients, namely citric acid and sodium citrate. By binding with the salts, citric acid prevents the formation of deposits and also breaks down the small deposits that are already beginning to form. On the other hand, sodium citrate is metabolized to sodium bicarbonate in the human body. It is alkaline in nature and works by neutralizing the acids in urine and blood, thereby preventing the accumulation of salts.

The formulation also works as a carminative and prevents the formation of gas in the gastrointestinal tract while regulating the digestion process.
