When checking interaction based on authoritative sources Drugs.com, Rxlist.com, Webmd.com, Medscape.com there are contraindications or side effects that may cause harm or increase the negative effect from drug use in presence of concomitant diseases.

Consumer:

The use of glucono-delta-lactone is contraindicated in the presence of demonstrable urinary tract extravasation and also should be stopped immediately in the presence of a urinary tract infection (UTI). Glucono-delta-lactone is part of an irrigant (citric acid, glucose-delta-lactone, magnesium carbonate) designed to dissolve struvite renal stones, which contain urea- splitting bacteria. Dissolution of bacteria- containing stones in the presence of a UTI may result in sepsis and death. Urine should be sterile prior to initiating therapy and antibiotics administered throughout the course of dissolution therapy.
