“…Despite initially promising effects of magnesium treatment, there are no long-term studies that support an effect in preventing recurrence for either MgO or Mg(OH) 2 [11,72]. This lack of effect can probably be explained by an increased excretion of calcium parallel with that of magnesium, and that a low magnesium excretion is an uncommon finding in calcium stone formers.…”

“…However, there is evidence suggesting that this is not always the case [9]. Natural mineral water rich in magnesium and hydrogen carbonate and with a slight amount of potassium citrate added offers very promising properties when one regards the well-known risk factors of calcium oxalate stone formation [10][11][12][13][14]. Potassium magnesium citrate has also been reported as the most effective means to increase urinary citrate levels [15].…”

“…It has recently been stated that a single dose of a potassium and sodium citrate mixture (at 20:00 h) significantly increases urinary pH in normal subjects. This lasted until 10:00 h the next day, but the authors did not state the amount by which the pH had risen (20). We do not regard the precise mechanism by which pH is changed as important, as a decrease in hydrogen ion concentration can be accomplished in a variety of ways both physiologically and in vitro.…”
