Tromethamine is part of the
Alkalinizing Agents class and treats
Metabolic Acidosis.
Alkalinizing agents are used to treat conditions associated with a low pH in the body. Some medications can work to treat
gout and
kidney stones by neutralizing uric acid in the blood and urine to keep down inflammation of the joints, and to prevent the formation of stones in the kidney. Others like
sodium bicarbonate are available without a prescription to ease
heartburn and
acid indigestion. Tromethamine is only available as a generic drug.
