A friend on the Internet consulted Dr. Zhang, is it useful for patients with high uric acid to eat soda tablets? What are the considerations? This problem is very grounded, said a lot of uric acid elevated people's hearts, today Dr. Zhang will give you a specific talk about this problem, I hope to help more friends.
Now there are more and more friends with high uric acid, the main reason is that people's lifestyles have undergone tremendous changes, to put it more clearly, that is, delicious food is eaten too much, and physical activity is decreasing. Of course, there are also some friends who have high uric acid, which is related to their own physique, and this article will not discuss this reason for the time being. However, no matter which factor causes the disease, patients will face the same problem, that is, do they need to eat baking soda tablets regularly when urea is high? This is the doubt in the hearts of many patients.
More rigorously, in fact, not all patients with high uric acid need to eat soda tablets, about eating soda tablets, the "Chinese Guidelines for High Uric Acid" is recommended: When patients with hyperuricemia and gout have a PH value of less than 6.0 in the morning, they usually need simplified urine therapy, that is, oral sodium bicarbonate tablets (baking soda tablets) are needed for treatment.
It is particularly pointed out here that those patients who are taking uric acid excretion drugs, that is, those who are taking benzbromarone are high uric acid patients, if the monitoring finds that the PH value of urine is lower than 6.0, it is particularly necessary to take oral sodium bicarbonate tablets to alkalinize urine, and try to maintain the PH value between 6.2 and 6.9, so as to reduce the risk of kidney stones caused by acidic urine.
The above is Dr. Zhang's answer to whether people with high uric acid need oral uric acid-lowering drugs, hoping to solve the doubts in the hearts of friends. Thank you for your continued attention and support to Dr. Zhang.
