Calcitonin is given parenterally (preferably by subcutaneous or intramuscular injection) or intranasally since calcitonin is destroyed in the GI tract. Experience with the use of calcitonin in the elderly has shown no evidence of reduced tolerability or altered dosage requirements. An increase in serum calcium concentrations helps to reduce bone resorption and loss of bone mass, and offsets the effect of calcitonin in lowering serum calcium levels. [24299] Guidelines recommend against calcitonin-salmon for the treatment of osteoporosis; the efficacy of calcitonin in preventing non-vertebral fractures is not established, and the increase in bone mineral density observed is less than that reported for other agents (e.g., bisphosphonates). stream If your usual dose is three times a week, give the missed dose on the next day and continue every other day thereafter.

The dose may be reduced after the condition of the patient has improved. The actions of calcitonin on bone and its role in normal human bone physiology are still not completely elucidated, although calcitonin receptors have been discovered in osteoclasts and osteoblasts. >> Peak plasma concentrations are attained within the first hour of administration. There is a relationship between the subcutaneous dose of calcitonin and peak plasma concentrations. Calcium Chloride: (Moderate) Calcitonin is given to hypercalcemic patients to reduce serum calcium concentrations. Store in a refrigerator (2C-8C). Calcitonin is also contraindicated in patients with hypocalcaemia. The development of these antibodies is not usually related to loss of clinical efficacy, although their presence in a small percentage of patients following long-term therapy with calcitonin may result in a reduced response to the product. Reduction in serum calcium concentration in patients with hypercalcemia evident within about 2 hours after first injection. Victor Cohen,1,2 Samantha P.

When studied in rabbits, salmon calcitonin-salmon decreased fetal birth weights when given by subcutaneous injection in doses 4 to 18 times the recommended human parenteral dose and 70 to 278 times the recommended human intranasal dose (based on body surface area). /Resources 19 0 R The evidence of efficacy for calcitonin salmon injection is based on increases in total body calcium observed in clinical trials. Calcium salts, including calcium carbonate, can elevate serum calcium concentrations and antagonize the effects of the calcitonin for this condition. Patients in these trials were treated with oral or intra-nasal formulations however it is likely that an increased risk also applies when calcitonin is administered subcutaneously, intramuscularly or intravenously especially for long-term use, as systemic exposure to calcitonin in such patients is expected to be higher than for other formulations.
