Calcitriol Capsules IP
Calcitriol Capsules IP is an active form of vitamin D used to help manage calcium and phosphate balance in patients with certain kidney-related conditions.
Product Details
Calcitriol Capsules IP contains calcitriol, the biologically active form of vitamin D. It is used in the management of certain kidney-related conditions where impaired kidney function affects vitamin D activation and calcium or phosphate metabolism. It helps support proper calcium absorption and maintain healthy bone metabolism under medical supervision.
Key Benefits
- Helps maintain calcium balance in the body
- Supports healthy bone mineralization
- Helps improve calcium absorption from the intestine
- Supports management of certain kidney-related mineral and bone disorders
- Helps regulate calcium and phosphate metabolism
How It Works
Calcitriol acts through vitamin D receptors in the body and increases the intestinal absorption of calcium and phosphate. It also influences bone and parathyroid activity, helping regulate calcium and phosphate levels in patients whose normal vitamin D metabolism may be impaired.
Common Side Effects
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Abdominal discomfort
- Loss of appetite
- Headache
- Weakness
- Increased thirst or urination
- High calcium levels
Important Information
Calcitriol Capsules IP should be used under the guidance of a qualified healthcare professional, particularly in patients with chronic kidney disease. Regular monitoring of blood calcium, phosphate, and parathyroid hormone levels may be required. Excessive calcium or vitamin D intake during treatment can increase the risk of hypercalcemia and related complications. Inform your healthcare professional about other medicines, calcium or vitamin D supplements, and existing medical conditions. Seek medical advice if persistent nausea, vomiting, unusual weakness, excessive thirst, or frequent urination occurs.
