Calcium Gluconate Tablets (150 Count)

Product Description

Calcium Gluconate Tablets (150 Count) offer a convenient way to supplement your daily calcium intake. Calcium is a vital mineral crucial for numerous bodily functions, including:

• Nerve Impulse Transmission: Ensuring efficient communication between your brain and body.
• Muscle Contraction: Supporting the proper functioning of both skeletal and smooth muscles.
• Heart Health: Contributing to a healthy and strong heartbeat (myocardial activity).
• Bone Formation & Strength: Promoting healthy bone density and reducing the risk of osteoporosis.
• Blood Clotting: Playing a critical role in the blood clotting process.

Pharmacokinetics

Approximately 1/5 to 1/3 of orally administered calcium gluconate is absorbed in the small intestine. Absorption is influenced by factors such as vitamin D levels, pH balance, diet, and the presence of calcium-binding substances. Absorption increases in cases of calcium deficiency and when following a low-calcium diet. About 20% is excreted by the kidneys, while the remaining 80% is eliminated through the intestines.

Indications

Calcium Gluconate tablets may be used to treat conditions associated with hypocalcemia (low calcium levels), increased cell membrane permeability (including blood vessels), and impaired nerve impulse transmission in muscle tissue. These include:

• Hypoparathyroidism (latent tetany, osteoporosis)
• Vitamin D metabolism disorders: rickets (spasmophilia, osteomalacia)
• Hyperphosphatemia in patients with chronic kidney disease
