Magstone B6 Oral Solution has two active ingredients that work together:

• Potassium Magnesium Citrate (978 mg): As an osmotic laxative, this ingredient works by drawing water into the colon to stimulate bowel movements, thereby helping to clean out the intestines before diagnostic procedures. Additionally, it acts as an antacid that neutralises stomach acid. In patients with kidney disease, it prevents the accumulation of acid in the body by making the urine less acidic.

• Pyridoxine Hydrochloride (14 mg): Also known as Vitamin B6, this ingredient doesn't directly contribute to the laxative effect or acid-neutralising properties of the medication. However, it plays an important role in maintaining normal nerve function and forming red blood cells, thereby supporting overall body health.

• Store Magstone B6 Oral Solution at room temperature, ideally below 25°C.

• Keep it in a tightly closed container, away from direct light and heat.

• Prevent exposure to moisture or damp conditions.

• Always keep this medicine out of sight and reach of children.

• Stay well-hydrated. If you're dealing with bowel problems or undergoing bowel preparation for a colonoscopy, it's crucial to drink plenty of fluids. This can help manage potential diarrhoea caused by taking Magstone B6 Oral Solution.

• Limit processed foods. Metabolic acidosis can be managed by reducing the intake of processed foods, which tend to be high in sodium and phosphates. Instead, focus on fresh fruits and vegetables that are naturally low in these substances.
