Long-term treatment of hypercalciuria with thiazides, sodium or potassium cellulose phosphate, separately or in combination. 1979

W Lutzeyer, and F Hering, and R Hautmann

Urinary supersaturation in respect to brushite or calcium oxalate represents the main pathogenic factor in stone formation. Of the patients with calcium oxalate stones 30 to 40% present with hypercalciuria. Herein we determine and compare the effects and side effects in the treatment of hypercalciuria with sodium cellulose phosphate or Campanyl, a potassium versus calcium ion exchanger, and thiazides alone or in combination with an ion exchanger.

D002118	Calcium	A basic element found in nearly all tissues. It is a member of the alkaline earth family of metals with the atomic symbol Ca, atomic number 20, and atomic weight 40. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and combines with phosphorus to form calcium phosphate in the bones and teeth. It is essential for the normal functioning of nerves and muscles and plays a role in blood coagulation (as factor IV) and in many enzymatic processes.
