ELEMENTAL CALCIUM-150MGIntestinal malabsorption
Severe
How does the disease interact with Calorich-HB Capsule 30's:
Malabsorption Malabsorption syndromes can decrease the calcium absorption of oral formulations.

How to manage the interaction:
Malabsorption may decrease the absorption of calcium acetate.
ELEMENTAL CALCIUM-150MGChronic kidney disease
Severe
How does the disease interact with Calorich-HB Capsule 30's:
Renal impairment Calcium elimination through the kidney is decreased in renal impairment patients. Hyperphosphatemia may occur during renal failure. Calorich-HB Capsule 30's can correct metabolic acidosis to some extent which is associated with chronic kidney disease. Closely monitoring for renal function, serum calcium, and phosphate concentrations is recommended.

How to manage the interaction:
Absorption of oral calcium formulations may be altered and elimination of Calorich-HB Capsule 30's by the kidney may decrease in patients with renal impairment. Clinical monitoring of renal function and serum calcium and phosphate concentrations is advised.
ELEMENTAL CALCIUM-150MGSarcoidosis
Severe
How does the disease interact with Calorich-HB Capsule 30's:
sarcoidosis In patients with sarcoidosis, sometimes hypercalciuria, with or without hypercalcemia, may occur. Elevated calcium levels may be caused by increased intestinal calcium absorption, which is linked to extrarenal vitamin D synthesis by mononuclear phagocytes present within the sarcoid granuloma. Use Calorich-HB Capsule 30's only if necessary in case of sarcoidosis with caution.

How to manage the interaction:
Hypercalciuria (excessive urinary calcium excretion), with or without hypercalcemia (high calcium levels), may occasionally occur in patients with sarcoidosis. Therapy with Calorich-HB Capsule 30's should be administered cautiously and only if necessary in patients with sarcoidosis.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Osteoporosis: It is a bone disease that weakens and brittle bones by decreasing bone density. As the density of bones decreases, they weaken and are more likely to break. Breaking a bone is a severe complication of osteoporosis, especially in older patients. Women are much more likely to develop osteoporosis than 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 easily than expected.

Tetany: A disease condition due to low levels of calcium (hypocalcaemia) in the body which causes cramps and spasms in the hands, feet, and larynx (voice box).

Hypoparathyroidism: It is a disease characterized by low levels of parathyroid hormone. This can cause low calcium levels and trigger tetany.
