Calcy-Mb 10Ml Amp (50X10 Ml) Calcium Gluconate By Martin & Brown

What is it used for?
Calcium gluconate is used to treat or prevent low calcium levels in the body. Injectable calcium gluconate may be used in hospitals for urgent treatment of severe low calcium and certain medical emergencies.

How does it work?
It supplies calcium, which is needed for healthy bones and teeth, normal muscle movement, nerve function and heart activity.

How to take/use it
Use it only as directed on the label or by a healthcare professional. Oral forms should be taken as directed. Injectable calcium gluconate must be given by a trained healthcare professional.

Common side effects
Oral forms may cause constipation, stomach discomfort, nausea or diarrhoea. Injection-site irritation may occur with injectable forms. Rapid or incorrectly administered injections can cause serious heart-related effects.

Precautions
Tell the doctor if there is kidney disease, a history of kidney stones or high calcium levels. Inform the doctor or pharmacist about other medicines, especially thyroid medicine, iron supplements and certain antibiotics, as calcium can affect their absorption. Seek urgent medical help for irregular heartbeat, severe weakness, confusion or difficulty breathing.
