ALPHADOL 0.25MG CAPS contains Alfacalcidol, a vitamin D analogue used to treat and prevent low calcium levels due to conditions such as osteodystrophy (associated with kidney failure), parathyroid disorders, hypocalcaemia in newborns, and bone softening conditions like rickets and osteomalacia.
It works by being converted in the body to its active form, calcitriol, which helps in calcium absorption and regulates parathyroid hormone levels, supporting bone strength and mineralization.
Regular monitoring of blood calcium and phosphate levels is advised during treatment, as dosage may be adjusted based on these results.
It should be swallowed whole, with medical direction on dose and duration. Not recommended for patients with high blood calcium (hypercalcemia) or tissue calcification.
