ABOUT CALINTA TABLET 10S

Calinta Tablet 10S belongs to the class of ‘Multi-minerals’ primarily used to treat low blood calcium levels (hypocalcaemia) in patients undergoing dialysis for chronic renal failure. Calinta Tablet 10S effectively treats various conditions caused by low calcium levels in the body, such as osteoporosis (weak and brittle bones), osteomalacia/rickets (weak bones), and hypoparathyroidism (low levels of parathyroid hormone). Calinta Tablet 10S is also indicated in the treatment of psoriasis (a skin disease that causes itchy scaly patches), hypocalcaemia (low calcium levels in the blood) and hypomagnesemia (low levels of magnesium in the blood) after small bowel resection. Calinta Tablet 10S can also be given to pregnant, nursing, and postmenopausal women to get enough calcium. Additionally, Calinta Tablet 10S is used to treat hyperparathyroidism (overactive parathyroid glands) and metabolic bone disease in people with chronic kidney disease, surgery, or other conditions.

Calinta Tablet 10S consists of three medicines, namely: Calcium (mineral), Calcitriol (vitamin D3), and Zinc sulfate (mineral). Calcium is a mineral that is used to prevent or treat a calcium deficiency. It provides essential nutrients to maintain bone formation and maintenance. Calcitriol is a synthetic version of vitamin D3 and treats calcium deficiency with hypoparathyroidism (the parathyroid gland’s decreased activity) and metabolic bone diseases in people with chronic kidney failure. It raises vitamin D levels and thereby increases calcium levels in the blood. This helps in improving the absorption rate of calcium from the intestine. Zinc sulfate is a mineral that has an essential role in bone health. Zinc helps to stimulate osteoblastic bone formation and mineralization.

Take Calinta Tablet 10S as prescribed by You’re doctor. You are advised to take Calinta Tablet 10S for as long as You’re doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on You’re medical condition. In some cases, Calinta Tablet 10S can cause side effects like constipation or stomach upset, nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, weakness, tiredness, fast or pounding heartbeat, bone/muscle pain, and headache. Most of these side effects of Calinta Tablet 10S do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if these side effects persist longer, please consult You’re doctor.

Osteoporosis, Postmenopausal osteoporosis, Osteomalacia, Rickets, Calcium deficiency, Tetany and Hypoparathyroidism

MEDICINAL BENEFITS

Calinta Tablet 10S is a combination of three drugs, namely; Calcium (mineral), Calcitriol (vitamin D3), and Zinc sulfate (mineral), used to treat low blood calcium levels and various associated conditions caused by low calcium levels in the body, such as osteoporosis (weak and brittle bones), osteomalacia/rickets (weak bones), hypoparathyroidism (low levels of parathyroid hormone), and tetany (a muscle disease with low blood calcium levels). Calcium is a mineral and prevents or treats calcium deficiency. It helps to maintain bone and teeth health. Calcitriol, a synthetic form of vitamin D3, treats calcium deficiency with hypoparathyroidism (the parathyroid gland’s decreased activity) and metabolic bone diseases in people with chronic kidney failure. Zinc sulfate is an important mineral in the normal growth and development of the skeletal system. It helps maintain bone density by increasing protein synthetase, which helps protect bone health.
