ফার্মাকোলজি
Calcitonin is a polypeptide hormone made naturally by the ultimobranchial gland in non-mammalian vertebrates, and by the parafollicular cells of the thyroid gland in mammals. It works by inhibiting osteoclast-driven bone resorption, which lowers the overall rate of bone turnover. It also acts on the kidneys, reducing tubular reabsorption and increasing the renal excretion of calcium, chloride, sodium, magnesium, potassium and phosphate.
Pregnancy & Breastfeeding
Pregnancy Category C. This means either animal studies have shown some risk to the developing baby (such as birth defects or fetal loss), but there are no well-controlled studies in pregnant women, or no studies have been done in either women or animals. Because of this uncertainty, salmon calcitonin should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit to the mother is judged to outweigh the possible risk to the unborn child.
⚠️ Talk to your doctor before taking any medicine during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
