Hello,

The best - and only evidence-proven- recommendation in terms of drinking when kidney stones are present is to drink plenty water. Keeping well hydrated facilitates stone passing and improves symptoms.

Thanks.

Enough of fluids so that you NEED to empty your bladder every 2 hours, and that you NEED to get up at night at least once to empty your bladder, and drink more then
