| Core Tip |
Should pediatric idiopathic hypercalciuria be treated with hypocalciuric agents? Reduction in bone mass has already been described in hypercalciuric pediatric patients and the precise mechanisms of bone loss or failure to achieve adequate bone mass remain unknown. Initial recommendations for the treatment of hypercalciuric pediatric patients consist of lifestyle changes and adequate diet. Children rarely comply with those recommendations and require potassium citrate supplementation or thiazides to reduce calciuria. However, anticalciuric therapy in children and adolescents is not based on strong clinical evidences. We speculate if the anticalciuric effect of pharmacologic therapy has a beneficial role on bone mass in pediatric idiopathic hypercalciuria and compromised bone mass in adulthood. |
