Temcal Capsule

Temcal Capsule contains the active ingredient Calcitriol. It is indicated for treatment of conditions related to calcium and bone metabolism, including regulation of calcium and phosphorus levels, promotion of bone health, and support of bodily functions. It is used in hypocalcaemia (low blood calcium), hypoparathyroidism (low parathyroid hormone), chronic kidney disease, osteoporosis (weakened bones), rickets, osteomalacia (softening of bones), psoriasis, and secondary hyperparathyroidism (imbalanced calcium metabolism). It may assist in managing parathyroid hormone levels and associated complications. It may also have roles in immune function, cancer prevention, cardiovascular health, diabetes management, mood regulation, muscle strength, and autoimmune conditions.

Temcal Capsule should not be used in patients with known hypersensitivity or allergic reaction to Calcitriol or any formulation containing this ingredient. Such patients should inform their healthcare provider immediately. This medication should be avoided in individuals with hypercalcaemia (high blood calcium levels), vitamin D toxicity, malabsorption syndromes, and elevated vitamin D metabolite levels.

In children, Temcal Capsule is used for conditions such as rickets or growth-related disorders. In older adults, it may be used to support bone health and fracture prevention. Dosage and monitoring are carefully managed by healthcare professionals to ensure safe and effective use across these age groups.

Temcal capsule is used in the following: Hypocalcemia (Low blood calcium) Hypoparathyroidism (Low parathyroid hormone) Secondary hyperparathyroidism (Imbalanced calcium metabolism) Chronic Kidney Disease Osteoporosis (weakened bones) Rickets and Osteomalacia Psoriasis

Temcal capsule, the active form of vitamin D, exerts significant therapeutic effects on calcium and phosphate regulation, bone health, and kidney function. Enhancing calcium and phosphate absorption from the intestines, it maintains optimal mineral levels in the blood, which is crucial for bone strength, nerve transmission, and muscle function.

Temcal capsule can be swallowed as a whole with a full glass of water. The dose depends on the medical condition and treatment goals. The dose depends on the condition's age, weight, and severity and is decided by a healthcare provider.

Temcal capsule causes some side effects like all medications, although not everyone will experience them. Serious Hypercalcemia (elevated blood calcium levels) Allergic reactions (rash, itching, swelling, difficulty breathing) Kidney stone formation Irregular heartbeat Bone pain Common Increased thirst and urination Loss of appetite Nausea and vomiting Constipation Muscle weakness Headache Dry mouth

Consult a healthcare professional before starting Temcal capsule, especially if you are pregnant or breastfeeding mother. Take the amount your doctor recommends and follow the directions.
