Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to test the efficacy of the two long-acting thiazide-like diuretics indapamide and chlorthalidone in reducing urine supersaturation for calcium oxalate and calcium phosphate compared to the short-acting thiazide diuretic hydrochlorothiazide for the prevention of calcium-containing kidney stones.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion criteria: * Written, informed consent. * Age 18 years or older. * Recurrent kidney stone disease (≥2 kidney stone episodes in the last 10 years prior to randomisation). * Past kidney stone containing ≥50 % CaOx, CaP, or a mixture of both.
