Appearance

This product is white tablets.

Indication

Used to prevent and treat calcium deficiency diseases such as osteoporosis, tetany, bone dysplasia, rickets, and as calcium supplement for children, pregnant and lactating women, menopausal women, and the elderly.

Usage and Dosage

Oral administration, 1-6 tablets per day, taken in divided doses after meals.

Adverse Reactions

1. Belching and constipation. 2. Milk-alkali syndrome may occur occasionally, manifested as hypercalcemia, alkalosis and renal insufficiency. (Caused by taking milk and calcium carbonate, or calcium carbonate alone). 3. Excessive and long-term use may cause rebound increase in gastric acid secretion and hypercalcemia.

Precautions

It is contraindicated in patients with hypercalcemia, hypercalciuria, calcium-containing kidney stones, or a history of kidney stones.

Special Population Medication

Precautions for children: Children must use the drug under adult supervision. Precautions for pregnancy and lactation: Animal reproduction studies have shown that the drug has toxic side effects on the fetus, but a sufficiently rigorous controlled study has not been conducted on pregnant women, and the therapeutic benefits of the drug for pregnant women may outweigh its potential harms. The drug has not been tested on animals, nor has a sufficiently rigorous controlled study been conducted on pregnant women. Precautions for the elderly: Not yet clear.

Drug Interactions

1 This product should not be used in combination with digitalis drugs. 2 Drinking large amounts of alcoholic and caffeinated beverages and smoking large amounts of cigarettes will inhibit the absorption of calcium. 3 Eating large amounts of fiber-rich foods can inhibit the absorption of calcium, because calcium combines with cellulose to form compounds that are not easily absorbed. 4 This product is used in combination with phenytoin sodium and tetracyclines, and the absorption of both is reduced. 5 Vitamin D, birth control pills, and estrogen can increase calcium absorption. 6 When aluminum-containing antacids are taken with this product, aluminum absorption increases. 7 When this product is used in combination with thiazide diuretics, hypercalcemia is likely to occur (due to increased renal tubular weight of calcium).

Storage

Sealed, store in a dry place.

Packaging Specification
