About TEVA-CINACALCET

TEVA-CINACALCET is a prescription medication containing the active ingredient CINACALCET HYDROCHLORIDE. It is used to treat secondary hyperparathyroidism in adult patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) on dialysis.

Key Benefits & Uses

• Treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism in adult patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) on dialysis.
• Helps to manage elevated calcium and phosphate levels in the blood.
• May be used in conjunction with other medications to manage bone disease and anemia associated with CKD.

Active Ingredient & Action

CINACALCET HYDROCHLORIDE works by binding to and activating the calcium-sensing receptor (CaR) on the surface of parathyroid gland cells. This activation leads to a decrease in parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion, which in turn helps to lower calcium and phosphate levels in the blood.

Important Notes

TEVA-CINACALCET should only be used under the guidance of a healthcare professional. It is essential to follow the recommended dosage and schedule to avoid adverse effects. Patients with certain medical conditions, such as hypocalcemia or hypercalcemia, should use this medication with caution. Regular monitoring of calcium and phosphate levels is necessary to ensure safe and effective treatment.
