This drug is expensive but the same ingredients can be found in Country Time Lemonade. That's saved me a lot.

I agree that the pull is large and expensive; however, necessary for me. It has been a kidney saver for me. I take 4 of these pills a day. Two in the morning and two at night for this drug to be effective, but it has stopped the kidney stones from forming.

This drug has caused tingling in my hands and feet. Also notice that my ankles, feet, and legs are swollen. Thinking of stoping this medicine. Anyone have any of these side effects?
