Cystopurin Potassium Citrate Cranberry Sachets – 6

Overview

Cystopurin is an over-the-counter medicine in granule form. Each sachet holds 3 g of granules for oral solution, which are dissolved in water and drunk, with potassium citrate as the active substance and natural cranberry juice extract for flavour. Its product information lists it for the symptoms of cystitis; Lir’s page explains that potassium citrate works by making the urine less acidic.

This pack holds 6 sachets, which the pack describes as a 48-hour course, and the carton is marked low in sodium. It is made by Bayer. Lir’s page gives no dosing, age or warning details, so the pack leaflet is the place to check before use.

Things to consider

• It is a medicine: read the pack leaflet before use. Lir’s page gives no dosing, age or warning details, so check the leaflet or ask the pharmacist, especially if you take other medicines, are pregnant or have a kidney condition.
• The active substance is a potassium salt, so people on a potassium-restricted diet should ask a pharmacist first.
• See a doctor if symptoms persist beyond the course, get worse, or come with a fever or back pain.
