Drug Details
This medication is prescribed alongside antibiotics and/or surgical procedures to manage bladder infections triggered by specific bacteria. These bacteria elevate ammonia levels in the urine, which can lead to the formation of struvite kidney stones. The drug functions by inhibiting the bacteria's ability to produce ammonia, thereby reducing ammonia levels. This reduction in ammonia not only helps slow the development of kidney stones but also enhances the effectiveness of antibiotics in treating the infection.
