Product Information
Calcium lactogluconate dihydrate is a calcium salt that is used as a dietary supplement. It is the most soluble form of calcium and can be used in patients with kidney disease or reduced glomerular filtration rates. Calcium lactogluconate dihydrate can also be used to treat hypocalcemia, which is a low level of calcium in the blood. The supplement provides calcium ions, which are necessary for normal functioning of the heart, muscles, and nerves. Calcium lactogluconate dihydrate contains hydrochloric acid to facilitate dissolution in water. The supplement also contains excipients such as stearic acid and calcium stearate to prevent caking during storage. Calcium lactogluconate dihydrate can be taken orally or administered intravenously for more rapid treatment of hypocalcemia.
