Description
CIPHROCET 30mg Tablets, containing the active ingredient Cinacalcet, are a specialized prescription medication used to manage conditions related to overactive parathyroid glands. As a calcimimetic, Cinacalcet works by increasing the sensitivity of the calcium-sensing receptors on the parathyroid glands. This action effectively reduces the secretion of parathyroid hormone (PTH) and consequently lowers elevated calcium and phosphorus levels in the blood. It is primarily prescribed for the treatment of:
- Secondary hyperparathyroidism in patients with chronic kidney disease who are on dialysis.
- Hypercalcemia (high blood calcium levels) in patients with parathyroid carcinoma.
- Primary hyperparathyroidism when surgery is not a suitable option.
By restoring mineral balance, CIPHROCET 30mg helps to prevent bone damage and other serious complications associated with these conditions. This medication requires careful monitoring by a healthcare professional.
