Swissmedic-approved patient informationCalcium D3 Sandoz®Sandoz Pharmaceuticals AGWhat is Calcium D3 Sandoz and when will it be applied?Calcium D3 Sandoz is a combination of calcium (in the form of calcium carbonate) and vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) available as instant powder and chewable tablets. Calcium D3 Sandoz is indicated as a calcium and vitamin D supplement in elderly people with calcium and vitamin D deficiency or at high risk of a deficiency (e.g. insufficient consumption of dairy products, insufficient exposure to the sun) and to support targeted Osteoporosis treatment in patients with proven or high risk of simultaneous calcium and vitamin D deficiency. What should be considered?Calcium D3 Sandoz is suitable for diabetics. One chewable tablet contains 0.48 g digestible carbohydrates. Depending on the dosage strength, the powder bags contain 0.36 g (500/440) or 0.72 g (1000/880) usable carbohydrates. When must Calcium D3 Sandoz not be taken / used?Calcium D3 Sandoz must not be taken at Hypersensitivity to any of the active substances or to any of the ingredients listed in the summary,abnormally increased amount of calcium in the blood (hypercalcaemia),increased excretion of calcium in the urine (hypercalciuria),severe kidney disease, urinary or kidney stones,existing vitamin D treatment.The chewable tablets may be taken by patients and patients with phenylketonuria should not be used because of the component aspartame. When is caution required when taking / using Calcium D3 Sandoz?Since Calcium D3 Sandoz already contains vitamin D, any additional Vitamin D administration should only be done under medical supervision to avoid overdose. In the case of prolonged treatment and/or mild renal insufficiency, it is recommended to have the amount of calcium excreted in the urine (calciuria) checked regularly. Depending on the result, your doctor may reduce or even stop treatment. In the case of treatment with digitalis preparations or thiazide diuretics, administration of calcium in combination with vitamin D requires regular monitoring. It is imperative that you consult your doctor or your cardiologist. In the case of treatment with a bisphosphonate, sodium fluoride, quinolones, L-thyroxine, estramustine, orlistat, cholestyramine, iron preparations, preparations containing zinc or strontium or paraffin, an interval of at least 2 hours should be observed before taking Calcium D3 Sandoz. In the case of oral treatment with tetracyclines (certain antibiotics), an interval of at least 3 hours should be observed before taking Calcium D3 Sandoz. Calcium D3 Sandoz should not be taken at the same time as foods containing oxalic acid, phosphate or phytin, e.g. spinach, rhubarb, bran or soy products. They can hinder the absorption of calcium. If you suffer from a certain lung disease (sarcoidosis), you may only take Calcium D3 Sandoz after consulting your doctor. Your doctor will monitor the levels of calcium in your blood and urine. If you suffer from immobilisation osteoporosis, there is an increased risk of developing hypercalcaemia (excessively high levels of calcium in the blood). Long-term intake of large amounts of calcium or high doses of vitamin D from food or medicines and at the same time easy-to-absorb basic substances (alkalines, e.g. bicarbonates, which are contained in medicines to bind gastric acid) can lead to milk-alkaline syndrome ( Calcium metabolism disorder) come with the risk of kidney damage.
