“…The excessive intestinal absorption of oxalate in patients with enteric hyperoxaluria can be treated by a restricted intake of oxalate-rich products with or without a diet poor in fat [76], administration of Oxabsorb® [77] (a marine hydro-colloid that forms complexes with oxalate), and calcium supplements [78]. For the average stone former with normal or mild hyperoxaluria a small reduction can be anticipated after the dietary restriction of oxalate-rich food.…”

SUMMARYRecurrent stone formation in the urinary tract is a common and important problem that must be considered in daily urological practice. With a prevalence of> 10% and an expected recurrence rate of ≈ 50%, stone disease has an important effect on the healthcare system. It is generally agreed that patients with uric acid/urate, cystine or infection stones always should be treated pharmacologically. For calcium stone formers the treatment should be chosen according to the severity of the disease. Recurrence in patients with calcium‐stone disease can be prevented with general or specific dietary and drinking advice, and with pharmacological therapy. For idiopathic calcium stone formers the most convincing therapeutic effects have been reported with thiazide and alkaline citrate.

“…Dietary calcium must not be restricted but must be increased. Calcium salts reduce absorption of dietary oxalate in patients with ileal resection or jejunoileal bypass [202][203][204][205][206][207][208][209] . Calciumcontaining organic marine hydrocolloid decreases oxalate absorption without increasing calcium absorption [206] .…”

“…Good results were recently reported with an organic marine hydrocolloid charged with calcium (Ox-absorb), a potent binding substance for oxalate [15]. Because of gastrointestinal side-effects we were not able to treat our patient over a longer period in this way.…”
