Traditional & Historical Associations
This set has been traditionally considered in cases described as kidney or bladder stones. Historically, remedies of this kind were associated with supporting natural elimination, easing discomfort, and encouraging urinary balance.
-
Calcification of the bladder wall in cats refers to calcium deposits in bladder tissue, often linked to chronic inflammation, infection, or irritation. Signs may include difficulty urinating, blood in the urine, or frequent urination. Veterinary evaluation is essential for diagnosis and treatment.
-
Sludgy bladder syndrome occurs when normal calcium crystals are retained in the bladder. Practitioner consideration:
-
S Ease 224-1 formula with ReMag Magnesium solution 284 (to support calcium balance and urinary flow).
-
For antimicrobial and flushing support, combine Bladder Balance 319 with Herba Flush 224-2 or use as separate bottles.
-
Stone Breaker 224-1 formula may also be considered.
-
Kidney calcification (stones) or sludgy bladder may benefit from minerals such as magnesium and potassium. Potassium, in particular, has been noted for helping to maintain balance in calcium distribution (keeping it from depositing in arteries or urine). A urine test may show high calcium levels, creating conditions where stones can form.
-
Struvite stones and bladder infection often appear together. In dogs, struvite stones form in alkaline urine, while calcium oxalate stones tend to form in acidic urine. Bladder infections caused by Staphylococci bacteria almost always produce struvite stones.

Herbal Medical Uses
Juniper (Juniperus communis) is a diuretic, which means it can help keep the urinary tract flushed as well as help the liver to expel toxins from the body. Flushing your urinary tract out regularly may help to reduce the chance of build up in the body. Juniper berries also contain volatile oils with antiseptic properties which can help disinfect the urinary tract. Furthermore, it has been noted that drinking juniper tea can help reduce uric acid in the urinary tract which may further help to reduce the chances of the development of kidney stoneis Pyelonephritis can also develop due to kidney stones or when microbes climb upward into the ureter, spreading a lower urinary tract infection to the upper urinary tract. Blockage of an infected kidney or ureter can lead to more serious complications: sepsis, a bacterial infection of the blood; or urosepsis, an infection of the blood resulting from decomposed urine being forced into the bloodstream.
Symptoms and Types Fever, Difficulty urinating, Blood in the urine, Foul-smelling urine, Discolored urine, Frequent thirst (polydipsia), Polyuria (frequent urination), Abdominal or lower back pain
Causes Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus spp. are the most common bacterial causes for infection. Other bacteria which may lead to pyelonephritis include - Proteus, Streptococcus, Klebsiella, Enterobacter, and Pseudomonas spp., which commonly infect the lower urinary tract, but which may ascend into the cat's upper urinary tract.
(prevention or treatment of high blood pressure, fluke worm - schistosomiasis),
Milk Thistle (Silybum Marianum) St Marys Milk Thistle. Cumulative damage to the liver from a lifetime of neutralizing toxins is a significant factor in aging and disease. Silymarin, the primary chemical component of milk thistle, offers potent antioxidant protection for liver cells. It also increases natural antioxidants found in liver cells. Milk thistle has been found to induce regeneration of liver cells. It is the most widely researched of all hepatoprotective (liver-protective) herbs and is well known for low toxicity and high safety.
Agrimony (Agrimonia eupatoria) The herb contains tannins believed to aid in ease of digestion and for mild and acute diarrhea. It may be also beneficial for troublesome bowel issues and to help tone mucous membranes and improve function. Because of its diuretic effect agrimony can help shed excess water weight and helps to flush the kidneys and bladder and helps to get rid of kidney stones.
Chanca Piedra (Phyllanthus niruri) Chanca piedra is best known as a potential kidney stone cure — which is how it earned the name “stone breaker.” The herb is alkaline, so it may help prevent acidic kidney stones. It’s a less expensive, over-the-counter alternative to prescription potassium citrate, an alkalizing agent that’s commonly used to prevent acidic kidney stones. It may also help you urinate more (2Trusted Source).
In one study of 56 people with kidney stones who took 1 cup of hot water infused with an herbal sachet containing 4.5 grams of chanca piedra twice daily, researchers found that the kidney stones decreased in size and number in about two-thirds of participants (3Trusted Source). What’s more, other small human studies have observed some benefit to taking chanca piedra for kidney stones (4Trusted Source).
