Directions for Use

Take this medicine as a whole with sufficient water. Do not crush or chew the capsule. You can take Rocaltrol softgel capsule with or without food, ideally at the same time each day. If you use antacids or calcium-containing products, take them at a separate time from this medicine, leaving a good gap between them.

Storage and disposal

Store this softgel capsule in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep it in its original pack, out of the sight and reach of children. Do not use it after the expiry date, and dispose of any unused capsules safely.

Quick Tips

  • Take it at the same time each day so it is easier to remember.
  • Keep up with the blood tests your doctor arranges to check your calcium.
  • Take antacids or calcium products at a separate time, well apart from this medicine.
  • Tell your doctor if you feel very thirsty, sick, or unusually tired.

Dosage

Overdose

Too much of this medicine can raise calcium to a high level, causing nausea, vomiting, extreme thirst, needing to pass urine often, confusion, or an uneven heartbeat. If you think you have taken too much of this medicine, contact your doctor immediately or visit the nearest hospital.

Missed a Dose

If you missed any dose of medicine, take it as soon as you remember. If it's time for your next dose, then skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dose schedule. Do not take a double dose of medicine to compensate for the missed one.

How does this medicine work?

Calcium keeps bones strong and helps the nerves and muscles work. The body needs the active form of vitamin d to take calcium in from food and to hold on to it. Rocaltrol softgel capsule provides this active form, calcitriol. It helps the gut absorb more calcium from food, helps the bones use it, and reduces the amount of calcium lost in the urine. This keeps calcium levels steady and supports healthier bones.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

Some medicines can change the way Rocaltrol softgel capsule works or affect your calcium levels. Tell your doctor about all the medicines, supplements, and herbal products you take. In particular, mention water tablets, medicines for the heart, calcium or magnesium products, antacids, and other vitamin d supplements, as together they may raise your calcium too much.

Interactions with food items

Foods and supplements that are high in calcium can add to the calcium this medicine helps your body absorb. Follow your doctor's advice on calcium-rich foods, and avoid taking extra calcium unless your doctor recommends it.
