K-Lyte Effervescent Orange (active ingredient: potassium citrate) is a prescription medication indicated for the following:

  1. Prevention and Treatment of Hypokalemia: K-Lyte is used to prevent and treat hypokalemia (low potassium levels in the blood), which can result from conditions such as prolonged vomiting, diarrhea, or the use of certain diuretics.
  2. Management of Kidney Stones: It is also indicated to help prevent the formation of certain types of kidney stones, particularly those associated with low potassium levels.

K-Lyte belongs to a class of drugs known as potassium supplements, which work by providing potassium to the body, helping to maintain normal potassium levels and support proper cellular function.

K-Lyte Effervescent Orange is a potassium supplement that comes in tablet form. It is usually taken orally as directed by a doctor, up to four times a day to prevent stomach upset. The tablets contain 25mEq of potassium as bicarbonate and citrate and are flavored with blood orange.

Dissolve the prescribed number of tablets in at least 4 ounces (120 milliliters) of cold water or juice per tablet. After the tablets are fully dissolved, sip the liquid slowly over 5 to 10 minutes. If you have an upset stomach, mixing your dose in a larger amount of liquid may help.
