CAS 131918-61-1: Paricalcitol
Description:Paricalcitol is a synthetic analog of vitamin D2, primarily used in the treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism associated with chronic kidney disease. Its chemical structure allows it to bind to vitamin D receptors, promoting calcium absorption and regulating parathyroid hormone levels. Paricalcitol is characterized by its ability to reduce parathyroid hormone secretion without significantly increasing serum calcium levels, making it a preferred option in managing hyperparathyroidism in patients with renal impairment. The substance is typically administered via injection or orally, depending on the clinical scenario. It is known for its relatively low risk of causing hypercalcemia compared to other vitamin D analogs. Paricalcitol is also recognized for its favorable pharmacokinetic profile, which includes a longer half-life and effective tissue distribution. As with any medication, monitoring for potential side effects, such as hypercalcemia or hyperphosphatemia, is essential during treatment. Overall, paricalcitol plays a crucial role in managing mineral and bone disorders in patients with chronic kidney disease.
