Citralka is prescribed for burning sensation in urination. The same is the reason for prescribing Urikind k. Both will not treat UTI. If your planning to conceive better to avoid any medication if not absolutely indicated.
Hope this answers your question.

Please get a urine culture to look for urine infection
Urikind k is an alternative to citralka.
The risks of potassium citrate in pregnant women are not well studied in humans.
Next Steps
Would be ideal to get a urine culture in your case and go forward with an antibiotic if positive
