LARETOL INJECTION is not recommended for use if you have hypercalcemia (increased levels of calcium levels in the blood) or vitamin D toxicity (high vitamin D levels). Consult your doctor before taking it.
LARETOL INJECTION should not be used during pregnancy unless the potential benefit to the mother justifies the potential risk to the fetus. Consult your doctor for advice. Before using LARETOL INJECTION, inform your doctor if you are breastfeeding, as it is known whether it may pass through the breast milk.
The safety and efficacy of LARETOL INJECTION are not established in children and adolescents under 18 years of age. LARETOL INJECTION should be used with caution with elderly patients. Consult your doctor before taking it.
