Combines sodium phosphate and potassium chloride in a single tablet.When prescribed by a healthcare professional S.P.P.C. is generally well tolerated at the recommended dose and may be prescribed for infants, children, pregnant and lactating women, and the elderly.The easy-to-swallow tablet can be halved or crushed to facilitate low-dose prescribing for infants and children.Prescribing InformationSodium and phosphate are involved in the regulation of extracellular fluid and pH. Chloride plays a key role in maintaining hydration, osmotic pressure and fluid balance. With potassium, it is required for gastric acid production and hence digestive function.Acid-base balance: One of the body's important mechanisms for maintaining intracellular acid-base balance is the phosphate buffer system, in which sodium monohydrogen phosphate and sodium dihydrogen phosphate act as efficient buffers in acid and alkaline conditions respectively.Gastrointestinal: Potassium and chloride are both essential for the production of gastric acid, and consequently help to maintain healthy digestive function.
