Biokcit 30 Sachets

Description
Food supplement with sweeteners based on potassium citrate.
Particularly helpful for people experiencing heavy fluid loss, such as heavy sweating, diuresis or diarrhoea, or for patients taking medicines such as diuretics, laxatives or corticosteroids.
It is also particularly useful for those who do intense sporting activity, as it not only provides an adequate amount of readily absorbed potassium, but supplies it in alkaline form, as citrate.
This alkalising action helps neutralise lactic acid in the muscles and allows it to be cleared more easily through the bloodstream.
This reduces the risk of cramps and muscle soreness.

Ingredients
Tribasic potassium citrate.

Warnings
Do not exceed the recommended daily dose.
Keep out of the reach of children under 3 years of age.
Food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a varied diet.
BIOKCIT is contraindicated in patients with hyperkalaemia or hypermagnesaemia, or with conditions that may predispose to these plasma changes. These conditions include chronic renal failure and uncontrolled diabetes mellitus.
Taking BIOKCIT together with potassium-sparing medicines (triamterene, spironolactone, amiloride) could cause hyperkalaemia. It is therefore advisable to monitor blood potassium levels.
No interactions with other medicines are known.
Rarely, mild gastrointestinal disturbances may occur during treatment, such as abdominal heaviness, nausea and occasionally diarrhoea. The tablet pack may be particularly suitable for these people.

Pack size
