Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query. Are you taking potassium citrate for urinary infection? If taking for urinary infection, then sodium citrate is an alternative which also helps in alkalizing urine. Cranberry juice and barley water also is good. Hope this may help you.
Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
