Özet
Objective: To show the effect of potassium citrate treatment on overactive bladder disease in patients with kidney stone and overactive bladder symptoms. Study Design: Experimental study. Place and Duration of Study: Department of Urology, Alanya Alaaddin Keykubat University and Department of Urology, Suleyman Demirel University, Turkey, from October 2019 to July 2020. Methodology: Patients with an indication for starting potassium citrate therapy because of kidney stone, and patients with symptoms of overactive bladder disease were included in the study. At the beginning of the treatment, the overactive bladder-version 8 form was filled and potassium citrate 10 meq 2x2 dose was started to the patients. The effect of potassium citrate on the symptoms of overactive bladder disease was demonstrated by filling the overactive bladder-version 8 form after one month of treatment. Results: A total of 82 people, 36 men and 46 women, participated in the study. Potassium citrate treatment caused a significant increase in urine pH levels (p<0.001). After potassium citrate treatment, there was a significant decrease in the score of the overactive bladder-version 8 form. (p<0.001). A positive correlation was found between age and overactive bladder-version 8 score change (p = 0.004). Conclusion: Potassium citrate can be used in the treatment of overactive bladder disease. The effect of potassium citrate treatment on ameliorating overactive bladder symptoms is more distinct in elderly patients.
