  • Title: Pyridoxine therapy in patients with renal calcium oxalate calculi.
    Author: Balcke P, Schmidt P, Zazgornik J, Kopsa H, Minar E.
    Journal: Proc Eur Dial Transplant Assoc; 1983; 20():417-21. PubMed ID: 6657665.
    Abstract:
    In 12 patients with idiopathic calcium oxalate calculi pyridoxine was administered. Within six weeks mean daily oxalic acid excretion decreased from 480 +/- 122 mumol to 336 +/- 83 mumol. Glycolic acid excretion fell from 208 +/- 51 mumol to 153 +/- 26 mumol (normal range: oxalic acid 228-412 mumol/day, glycolic acid 130-290 mumol/day). The reduction of oxalic acid excretion seems to be beneficial in prevention of idiopathic calcium oxalate calculi.
