Urologist 's  Response
Hello and welcome to HCM.
As an Urologist, i can suggest you take potassium magnesium citrate, which is available as tablets, syrup or sachets. Different companies market the same product in various names, like Stone-1 MB6,Alkaston MB6, etc, which are same as Potrate MB6.
You should be able to get in most medical stores.
Taking an alfa blocker like Alfuzosin with that, helps expel stone faster.
If you send details to me as a direct question,i can give expert opinion.
Drink 12-15 glasses liquids daily. Wish you good health.
