Rocaltrol
Rocaltrol is a synthetic form of vitamin D3 used to treat and prevent low levels of calcium in the blood in patients with kidney or parathyroid gland problems. It is often used in patients undergoing kidney dialysis to prevent bone disease. Rocaltrol works by increasing the absorption of calcium from the intestines and helping the body use calcium more efficiently.
How is this medication used?
Take Rocaltrol exactly as prescribed by your doctor. The dosage is based on your medical condition, blood calcium levels, and response to treatment. It is usually taken once daily with or without food. To help you remember, take it at the same time each day.
What are the possible side effects?
Common side effects include weakness, dizziness, dry mouth, nausea, vomiting, constipation, muscle pain, metallic taste in the mouth, and headache. Serious side effects can include high levels of calcium in the blood, which may cause confusion, irregular heartbeats, and stomach pain. Contact your doctor if you experience these symptoms.
What are the potential interactions?
Rocaltrol can interact with other medications, including diuretics, digitalis drugs, magnesium-containing antacids, and other vitamin D products. Be sure to tell your doctor about all the medications you take, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements, to avoid potential interactions.
