CompositionCalinta Kit is used to manage osteoporosis and strengthen bones. It helps prevent bone loss and reduces the risk of fractures, providing essential nutrients like Vitamin D3, calcium, and zinc.
Consult your doctor before using this kit and inform them of any pre-existing conditions. Continue taking the medicine as prescribed for optimal bone health.
Calinta Kit is used to prevent and manage osteoporosis in postmenopausal women, as well as to manage hypocalcemia and metabolic bone disease in dialysis patients. It also addresses deficiencies in vitamin D3, calcium, and zinc, supporting overall bone health and strength.
Take one tablet once a month on the same date.
Always take the tablet on an empty stomach; wait for at least 60 minutes before consuming any food, drink, or other medication.
Swallow the tablet whole with a full glass of water while sitting or standing upright. Avoid lying down for 60 minutes after taking the medicine.
If you are also taking calcium, iron, vitamins, or antacids, ensure they are consumed at a different time of day to avoid interfering with the absorption of this medicine.
Remember to consult your doctor for more specific advice.
Calinta Kit is taken orally.
Calinta Kit may cause side effects like upset stomach, abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhoea or constipation, headache, bone, muscle or joint pain, and rash or itching. If these side effects persist or worsen, consult your doctor.
Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve upon discontinuing the use of Calinta Kit. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.
Here are some general guidelines for managing common side effects:
Upset stomach, abdominal pain, nausea: Try taking your Calinta Kit with some food.
Bone, muscle or joint pain: If this medicine causes discomfort in your bones or muscles during the day, consider taking it at night.
The Calinta Kit contains four active ingredients that work together:
Calcitriol/Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3) (0.00025 mg): This ingredient helps your body absorb calcium from your diet and reclaim it from your kidneys. By doing so, it prevents bone loss that can occur due to vitamin D3 deficiency.
Elemental Calcium (500 mg): Calcium is the main mineral found in your bones. Providing supplemental calcium helps strengthen your bones especially when dietary intake is not sufficient.
Ibandronate (150 mg): Belonging to the bisphosphonate class of medicines, ibandronate slows down bone loss and increases bone mineral density by inhibiting cells called osteoclasts that break down bone.
Zinc (20 mg): Zinc plays a vital role in bone metabolism and mineralisation. A lack of zinc has been linked to conditions like osteoporosis.
Calinta Kit is contraindicated during pregnancy. If you are pregnant or planning to conceive, make sure to discuss this with your doctor before starting this medicine.
Calinta Kit is contraindicated for breastfeeding women. Consult your doctor to understand the potential risks and benefits.
There is no specific information about consuming alcohol while taking Calinta Kit. However, it’s always a good idea to discuss your alcohol intake with your doctor.
Caution is advised while taking Calinta Kit in case of mild to moderate liver impairment. It's not recommended for severe liver diseases. If you have liver problems, discuss them with your doctor before starting Calinta Kit. This medicine may affect liver function.
Caution is advised before using Calinta Kit if you have a history of any kidney problems. It's a good idea to consult your doctor before taking this medicine.
No specific information exists on whether Calinta Kit affects your ability to drive or operate machinery. If you experience side effects like dizziness or fatigue, avoid these activities and consult your doctor.
If you know you are allergic to any ingredient in Calinta Kit, avoid using it. Always inform your doctor about any known allergies before starting a new medicine.
Caution is advised while giving Calinta Kit to children under 18 years of age. Always consult your doctor before giving any medicine to a child.
Older patients should take Calinta Kit under medical supervision as they may be more susceptible to its side effects. Caution is advised if patients are above 70 years of age. Older patients might also have liver and kidney issues and might be on other medication. Your doctor will guide you based on your health status.
Calinta Kit interacts with the following medicines:
Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) such as aspirin may increase your risk of stomach ulcers or bleeding when taken with Calinta Kit.
Calcium supplements antacids like calcium carbonate can reduce the absorption of ibandronate in Calinta Kit.
Quinolone antibiotics like ciprofloxacin and levofloxacin may decrease the absorption and efficacy of both the antibiotic and the ingredients in Calinta Kit.
Thiazide diuretics like hydrochlorothiazide, when taken with Calinta Kit, may increase your risk of high calcium levels in your blood (hypercalcaemia).
Corticosteroids like prednisolone may increase bone loss when used alongside Calinta Kit.
Specific foods can interact with Calinta Kit:
Dairy products: Foods high in calcium such as milk and cheese, when consumed around the same time as taking Calinta Kit, could potentially interfere with the absorption of ibandronate.
Calinta Kit interacts with the following diseases:
Esophageal abnormalities: If you have conditions that delay esophageal emptying such as strictures or achalasia, Calinta Kit could exacerbate these conditions.
Low blood calcium (hypocalcaemia): This condition should be corrected before starting therapy with Calinta Kit as it contains ingredients that regulate calcium levels.
Severe kidney impairment: If your creatinine clearance is less than 30 mL/min, use of Calinta Kit can worsen your kidney function.
The daily dose of Calinta Kit should be taken as advised by your doctor. The dosage may vary based on your personal health conditions and response to therapy. For more detailed instructions, read the package insert.
In case of an overdose of Calinta Kit, you might experience symptoms like an upset stomach, bone pain or rash. If these symptoms persist or worsen, inform your doctor.
If a dose of Calinta Kit is missed, take it as soon as you remember. If it's nearly time for the next dose, skip the missed one and continue with your usual schedule. Don't increase your dosage without consulting your doctor.
Keep the Calinta Kit at room temperature, ideally between 20°C and 25°C.
Safeguard it from light and moisture to maintain its efficacy.
Always store this medicine out of reach of children.
Ensure you use the tablets before the expiry date on the pack.
To support strong bones, ensure your diet is rich in calcium. Dairy products, leafy greens, and fish like salmon or sardines are excellent sources.
Adequate sunlight exposure is key for Vitamin D production, which aids calcium absorption. Aim for 15 minutes of sun exposure daily, but be mindful of skin protection
