5. Study Description
Brief Summary
Lime powder regimen (LPR) is a lime-derived composition enriches with citrate/citric acid and potassium. LPR was invented to treat the renal stone patients with high risk of stone recurrence after stone removal. LPR should have equal or higher efficacy and lower adverse effect than current standard medicine.
Detailed Description
Lime powder regimen (LPR) is a mixture of lime-derive component with adjuvants containing high concentration of citrate, and moderate amount of potassium, magnesium and antioxidants. LPR was tested and verified to be very less toxic in cell culture and animal models. The clinical trial phase II showed that LPR reduced urinary metabolic abnormalities that enhance stone formation, such as hypocitraturia, hypokaliuria and acidified urine. Adverse effect of LPR was very low.
