Cinacalcet Tablets IP is a calcimimetic medicine used to help manage high parathyroid hormone (PTH) and calcium levels in certain patients with chronic kidney disease.
Product Details
Cinacalcet Tablets IP contains cinacalcet, a calcimimetic medicine used in the management of certain disorders involving the parathyroid glands and mineral balance. It is commonly used in patients with chronic kidney disease who are receiving dialysis and have secondary hyperparathyroidism. It may also be used for certain cases of hypercalcemia associated with parathyroid disorders.
Key Benefits
- Helps reduce elevated parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels
- Supports management of secondary hyperparathyroidism in dialysis patients
- Helps control elevated blood calcium levels in appropriate conditions
- Supports calcium and phosphate balance in chronic kidney disease
- Helps reduce excessive activity of the parathyroid glands
How It Works
Cinacalcet increases the sensitivity of calcium-sensing receptors on the parathyroid glands to calcium in the blood. This reduces the release of parathyroid hormone (PTH), which can help lower circulating calcium levels and support better mineral balance.
Common Side Effects
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Loss of appetite
- Dizziness
- Weakness
- Muscle aches
- Low calcium levels
Important Information
Cinacalcet Tablets IP should be used under the supervision of a qualified healthcare professional. Regular monitoring of serum calcium and other mineral levels is important during treatment. Low calcium levels can cause muscle cramps, tingling, numbness, seizures, or abnormal heart rhythms and require prompt medical attention. Inform your doctor about all medicines and supplements you are taking, especially medicines that can affect calcium levels or heart rhythm. Do not change the dose or stop treatment without medical advice.
