The drug prevents crystal formation, as well as the growth and aggregation of crystals of calcium salts in the urine. Keeping the calcium ions in a dissolved state, Xidiphone prevents the recurrence of stones, eliminating the possibility of formation of insoluble calcium salts (with oxalates, mucopolysaccharides, phosphates, etc.), has a moderate anti-inflammatory effect in interstitial nephritis.
Xidiphon, like other complexing compounds, has the property of accelerating the excretion of heavy metals - lead, tin, antimony, strontium, magnesium, silicon. Does not disturb the balance of microelements.
Also confirmed the effectiveness of the use of Xidifon in the complex therapy of bronchial asthma. In this case, the mechanism of the action of Xidiphon is not fully understood. It is assumed that it changes the biophysical state of the membranes of immunocompetent cells, stabilizing them.

- to accelerate the removal from the body of excess heavy metals of lead, tin, strontium, silicon and antimony;
- in the complex therapy of bronchial asthma of the lung and moderate course in adults with the goal of stabilizing the membranes of immunocompetent cells;
- in the complex therapy of hormone-dependent bronchial asthma in adults with the goal of preventing osteoporosis.
As a means of regulating calcium metabolism in adults and children:

- with hyperavitaminosis D;
- with hyperparathyroidism and concomitant interstitial nephritis;
