What is MOKO Mist Pot Citrate?
MOKO Mist Pot Citrate (Mistura Potassium Citrate) is a widely trusted urinary alkalinizer manufactured in Nigeria by New Healthway Company Limited. It is an oral liquid formulation designed to neutralize excess acid in the urinary tract, providing rapid relief from discomfort.
Key Uses of Mist Pot Citrate
This medication is primarily used to manage conditions where the urine is too acidic, such as:
- Relief from "Peppery" Urine: In Nigeria, many people describe the burning sensation during urination as "peppery." This product helps soothe this irritation quickly.
- Cystitis and Mild UTIs: It provides symptomatic relief from the burning sensation associated with mild urinary tract infections.
- Kidney Stone Prevention: It helps prevent the formation of certain types of kidney stones (urinary bladder calculi) by increasing urinary pH.
- Renal Tubular Acidosis: Used to balance acid levels in the body for patients with specific kidney conditions.
How It Works
The active ingredients—Potassium Citrate and Citric Acid—work as systemic alkalinizing agents. They increase the pH of your urine, making it less acidic. This neutralizes the "burning" effect and prevents minerals from crystallizing into stones.
