About CALCIJET 1MCG INJECTION 1ML

Calcitriol is used to treat or prevent some complications associated with long-term kidney dialysis, such as low calcium levels (Hypocalcaemia). Hypocalcaemia is characterized by low levels of calcium in the blood. A lack or inadequacy of vitamin D can cause hypocalcaemia.

CALCIJET 1MCG INJECTION 1ML contains calcitriol. It increases the levels of vitamin D in your blood, which in turn raises calcium levels thus, it helps to treat patients with low levels of calcium who are on chronic renal dialysis.

CALCIJET 1MCG INJECTION 1ML is given by a health care professional in a hospital or clinic setting. In some cases, CALCIJET 1MCG INJECTION 1ML can cause side effects like Nausea, headache, constipation, or pain/discomfort at the injection site may occur.
