Drug Details
K-Phos, containing potassium phosphate, is a medication designed to manage high urinary pH by making the urine more acidic. This action helps prevent the formation of calcium kidney stones and reduces the risk of urine-related odor and skin irritation caused by high ammonia levels. Additionally, K-Phos supports the efficacy of certain antibiotics used to treat bladder infections, such as methenamine. By acidifying the urine, it helps to control calcium levels, prevent stone formation, and enhance the effectiveness of specific urinary tract infection treatments.
