CALTIVE CAPSULE contains Calcitriol, which belongs to the group of medicines called Vitamin D analogs. It is used to manage bone disorders caused by calcium deficiencies due to various disease conditions such as renal osteodystrophy, menopausal osteoporosis, hyperparathyroidism, hypocalcaemia, and hypophosphatemia. Your doctor will monitor your calcium and renal function levels to ensure the efficacy of CALTIVE CAPSULE.
Renal osteodystrophy is a complication of chronic kidney disease that weakens bones. It is caused by changes in the levels of minerals and hormones in the blood. The main signs are bone pain and fractures. Menopausal osteoporosis is a condition where the bones start weakening in menopausal women.
Hyperparathyroidism is a condition when parathyroid hormones secrete excess thyroid hormones. Hypocalcemia refers to low levels of calcium in the blood. Hypophosphatemia indicates low levels of phosphorus in the blood.
CALTIVE CAPSULE is not recommended for use in patients with high levels of calcium in the blood (hypercalcaemia), deposits of calcium (metastatic calcification), or high levels of vitamin D.
CALTIVE CAPSULE should be used with caution in patients having difficulties moving due to medical conditions, surgeries, or kidney disease. Avoid consuming foods rich in vitamin D.
