If you have a history of kidney stones, or if you are at an increased risk of developing kidney stones, your doctor may recommend medications. Medications like thiazide diuretics can help to reduce the amount of calcium in the urine, while a xanthine oxidase inhibitor can help to prevent the formation of uric acid stones.
Since every person has a unique medical situation, the potential side effects of any medication should be discussed with a doctor prior to taking it.
