Abstract
The use of alkaline mineral waters leads to alkalization of urine and an increase in level of urinary citrate, which represent important factor inhibiting the formation of urinary stones. Combination of alkaline mineral waters with citrates facilitates the achievement of target urine pH level not only during dissolution therapy, but also during recurrence prevention. Alkalization of urine and reducing of the influence of alimentary factor dont preclude drug therapy. Patients should be counselled about complex strategies aimed to modifiable risk factors for urinary stone disease.
