About Calcilol 0.25 mcg Softgel Capsule
Calcilol 0.25 mcg Softgel Capsule belongs to a group of medicines called ‘vitamin D metabolites’ primarily used to treat low blood calcium levels. Calcilol 0.25 mcg Softgel Capsule effectively treats various 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 latent tetany (a muscle disease with low blood calcium levels). Calcilol 0.25 mcg Softgel Capsule can also be given to pregnant, nursing, and postmenopausal women to ensure that they are getting enough calcium. Additionally, Calcilol 0.25 mcg Softgel Capsule is used to treat hyperparathyroidism (overactive parathyroid glands) and metabolic bone disease in people with chronic kidney disease, surgery, or other conditions.
Calcilol 0.25 mcg Softgel Capsule contains Calcitriol (Vitamin D3); it is used to prevent or treat a calcium deficiency. It is an essential nutrient 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.
Take Calcilol 0.25 mcg Softgel Capsule as prescribed by your doctor. You are advised to take Calcilol 0.25 mcg Softgel Capsule for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, Calcilol 0.25 mcg Softgel Capsule can cause side effects like constipation or stomach upset, nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, mood changes, weakness, tiredness, fast or pounding heartbeat, bone/muscle pain, and headache. Most of these side effects of Calcilol 0.25 mcg Softgel Capsule do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if these side effects persist longer, please consult your doctor.
If you are known to be allergic to Calcilol 0.25 mcg Softgel Capsule or its inactive components, please inform your doctor. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before taking Calcilol 0.25 mcg Softgel Capsule . Higher doses of Vitamin D than the recommended daily dose should be used in pregnant women only when advised by the doctor. Calcilol 0.25 mcg Softgel Capsule may pass into the breast milk, hence breastfeeding mothers need to seek medical advice before starting Calcilol 0.25 mcg Softgel Capsule . Do not take Calcilol 0.25 mcg Softgel Capsule if you have hypercalcemia (high calcium levels), hypervitaminosis D (high vitamin D levels), and malabsorption syndrome (difficulty absorbing nutrition from food). Inform your doctor if you have any heart/kidney/liver/blood vessel diseases, kidney stones, sarcoidosis (growth of inflammatory cells in different parts of the body), Crohn's disease (inflammatory bowel disease), Whipple's disease (bacterial infection affecting joints and digestive system), achlorhydria (little or no stomach acid), low levels of bile, and phosphate imbalance.

Drug-Drug interactions: Calcilol 0.25 mcg Softgel Capsule may interact with other medicines containing vitamin D, Steroid medicines (hydrocortisone, prednisolone, dexamethasone), a medicine used to treat high levels of cholesterol in your blood (cholestyramine), medications containing magnesium, such as antacids (used to treat indigestion), medicines used to treat heart disease (digoxin or digitoxin), and diuretic medicines (bendroflumethiazide, chlortalidone, indapamide)
Drug-Food interactions: Do not take foods enriched with vitamin D and avoid a high intake of dairy products such as milk, ghee, and cheese.
Drug-Disease interactions: Calcilol 0.25 mcg Softgel Capsule is not recommended for use in patients with bleeding disorders, hypercalcemia (high levels of calcium in the blood), metastatic calcification (extra deposits of calcium in the body), kidney problems, high blood pressure, cancer, optic nerve damage, and high levels of vitamin D.
Osteoporosis: Osteoporosis is a bone disease that weakens and brittle bones by decreasing bone density. As bones become less dense, they weaken and are more likely to break. Breaking a bone is a serious complication of osteoporosis, especially with older patients. Women are much more likely to develop osteoporosis than are men. Signs and symptoms include back pain caused by a fractured or collapsed vertebra, loss of height over time, a stooped posture, a bone that breaks much more quickly than expected.
Osteomalacia/Rickets: A bone disease caused by softening and weakening bones in children due to inadequate vitamin D. Adults can experience a similar condition known as osteomalacia. It causes bone pain, poor growth, and soft, weak bones that can lead to bone deformities.
Tetany: A disease condition due to low calcium levels (hypocalcemia) in the body causes cramps and spasms in the hands, feet, and larynx (voice box).
Calcilol 0.25 mcg Softgel Capsule contains calcitriol, and it works by making your body absorb more calcium from your diet. This helps to form healthy bones and reduce bone damage.
Calcilol 0.25 mcg Softgel Capsule can cause kidney stones due to excess calcium deposition when used for a prolonged period. Please consult your doctor before taking Calcilol 0.25 mcg Softgel Capsule as a daily supplement if you have any kidney problems or a history of kidney stones.
Calcilol 0.25 mcg Softgel Capsule is used to increase low levels of calcium in the body. Hence it is not advised to use Calcilol 0.25 mcg Softgel Capsule during hypercalcemia since it causes the overdose of calcium leading to kidney stones and other effects.
Preferably, supplements of vitamin D3 should be taken along with the day's main meal or with milk.
Do not use Calcilol 0.25 mcg Softgel Capsule if you ate allergic to Calcilol 0.25 mcg Softgel Capsule or any other ingredients in it. Calcilol 0.25 mcg Softgel Capsule is not recommended in hypercalcemia (high calcium levels), metastatic calcification (extra deposits of calcium in the body), hypervitaminosis D (high vitamin D levels), and malabsorption syndrome (difficulty absorbing nutrition from food).
