Water: Available without prescription! drink atleast 64 ozs/day, avoid high salt diet, and see a kidney doc to figure out why you are having kidney stones. Diet is important too. Here are the details: http://www.Kidneydoctorbradenton.Org/2013/05/diagnosis-treatment-and-diet-for-people.Html.

Depeds on the type: Kidney stones always start as tiny crystals which pass out in the urine(crystaluria). However during dehydration the crystals stick together and form a tiny stone( nidus). Eventualy it gets bigger and bigger and fills the kidney(stag horn ). Prevention is based on avoiding dehydration, this is the key, means drinking fair amount of liquids.Uric acid stones, calcium oxalate, etc drugs may help.
