Does Long-term Use Of Oxycodone And Klonipin Cause Kidney Stones?
Struggling with formation of calcium oxalate kidney stones. Will taking Buspirone over time cause kidney stones? I ve taken-as needed doses of oxycodone and Klonipin for 40 years--taken very judiciously all those years, often making the one-month scripts last for 120 plus days. I stopped taking all medications two years ago, except low dose of thyroid. Would those two medications over such a long period cause kidney stones?
