Kidney stones
A thiazide for Hypercalciuria.
Normal dietary calcium, less sodium. Cutting calcium raises oxalate absorption.
Every reply shows its price. A message that passes your limit pauses, and the next one picks up where it stopped. Long chats summarize themselves so each message doesn't resend everything.
1Every message shows what it cost
How much should a stone former drink?
Enough to pass more than 2.5 L of urine a day, about 3 L of fluid. I added it to Nephrolithiasis.

A tour of the real thing
Walkthrough cards point at the actual controls, one at a time. Ask the assistant “how do I…?” and it can walk you through it on screen.
Nephrolithiasis
RenalNephrolithiasis
Nephrolithiasis
Stones form when urine is supersaturated with calcium oxalate. The commonest metabolic cause is Hypercalciuria, treated with Thiazide diuretics.
