Is it allowed to take Calcitriol during lactation?
Is it safe for a nursing mother and a child?

Daily allowance of Vitamin D for the breastfeeding woman is 400 IU per day which may be attained by a comprehensive and balanced diet. When treated do not exceed 6.400 IU per day and, if prolonged used, check-up for mother’s and child’s calcemia.A balanced and comprehensive diet make it vitamin supplementation useless.

wow I cant believe there is actually someone with hypoparathyroidism....This is such a rare condition that I never know anyone that can understand what its like. I love this med becuase I notice such a huge difference when I take it. Before I was diagnosed I was in the hospital 1-2 times a week to have a calcium i.v. and now as long as my stress levels are low and im taking my meds I rarely see those friendly people with the wonderful food they serve to me.

I had hyperplasia primary hyperparathyroidism. I had 3 1/2 glands removed. I then became hypo and had hungry bone syndrome, I had an extremely difficult time keeping calcium levels stable. Calcitrol has been a lifesaver. Ive been on it for about 1 year now and it had helped me so much.
