  ---

  Virtrate-3 is highly concentrated, and when consumed after meals and before bedtime, allows one to maintain an alkaline urine pH around the clock. When consumed as recommended, this product alkalinizes the urine without producing a systemic alkalosis. It is highly palatable and pleasant tasting. Potassium citrate and sodium citrate do not neutralize the gastric juice or disturb digestion.

  Virtrate-3 should be taken diluted in water, followed by additional water, if desired. Palatability is enhanced if chilled before taking.

  Usual Adult Dose

  3 to 6 teaspoonfuls (15 to 30 mL), diluted in water, four times a day, after meals and at bedtime, or as directed by a physician.

  Usual Pediatric Dose

  1 to 3 teaspoonfuls (5 to 15 mL), diluted in water, four times a day, after meals and at bedtime, or as directed by a physician.

  Usual Dosage Range

  2 to 3 teaspoonfuls (10 to 15 mL), diluted with water, taken four times a day, will usually maintain a urinary pH of 6.5-7.4. 3 to 4 teaspoonfuls (15 to 20 mL), diluted with water, taken four times a day, will usually maintain a urinary pH of 7.0-7.6 throughout most of the 24 hours without unpleasant side effects. To check urine pH, HYDRION Paper (pH 6.0-8.0) or NITRAZINE Paper (pH 4.5-7.5) are available and easy to use.
