This is from http://www.drugs.com/enc/kidney-stones.html
".... depending on the type of stone, your doctor may prescribe medicine to decrease stone formation or help break down and remove the material that is causing the stone. Medications can include:
* Allopurinol (for uric acid stones)
* Antibiotics (for struvite stones)
* Diuretics
* Phosphate solutions
* Sodium bicarbonate or sodium citrate (which make the urine more alkaline"
Naturetin is a diuretic. Diuretics may help to remove the material that is causing the stone.
