Suggested With Citralka Liquid. Had Bleeding While Passing Urine And Did Not Pass According To Urge. Suggest?

I was suggested with Citralka Liquid to be taken thrice a day, ie, 2 spoons mixed with water thrice a day. I did have some bleeding while passing my urine. Also was having the urge to pass urine but couldn't pass accordingly. So wanted to know what & how this syrup would help me overcome this issue. My mail id is YYYY@YYYY .
Thank you in advance.

HI ! If you had bleeding in the urine, I would suggest you to go for a routine urine test to start with and a culture sensitivity test if need be. If it comes out to be urinary infection, then you may have to go for a course of antibiotics on consultation with your treating doctor, along with the citralka, and may be an anti spasmodic if there is associated pain. Depending on the report of the urine test, your doctor may advise you for an ultrasound abdomen to rule out any urinary calculi which may also give rise to such problem of yours and accordingly the management may vary. Wishing you an early recovery.

Hi
Thank for choosing HCM
The citralka syrup is alkali agent which alkalize the urine having little antibiotic action, it works nice when urine specific gravity increases with acidic level, the role of sodium citrate (Citralka) in case of hematuria is doubtful, the cause of hematuria (URINE CONTAINS BLOOD ) should be found out first and the underlying cause should be treated accordingly, Have nice Day.
