Calcitrene Warnings
This safety and warning guide outlines important considerations for the use of calcipotriene. Please read through the information carefully and discuss any concerns with your healthcare provider.
Allergic Reactions: Calcipotriene may cause skin-related allergic reactions, characterized by redness, warmth, and itching. If these symptoms occur, discontinue use immediately and consult your prescriber.
Calcium Level Changes: Calcipotriene can lead to temporary increases in calcium levels due to its vitamin D content, which is absorbed through the skin. This risk is heightened with excessive application. Fortunately, any changes in calcium levels are reversible.
Flammability (Foam and Solution Forms): The foam and solution forms of calcipotriene are flammable. To prevent fire hazards, avoid exposure to flames, smoking, and heat sources during and immediately after application. Store these forms away from direct sunlight and high temperatures.
Contraindications: Calcipotriene should not be used if you have high calcium levels, as it could exacerbate this condition. Consult your healthcare provider if this applies to you.
If you experience an overdose or any severe reactions, seek emergency medical assistance promptly.
Calcitrene Side Effects
When using this medication, some individuals may experience mild side effects, including skin irritation, redness, itching, rash, dry skin, or a tingling sensation at the application site. These effects are usually temporary and not cause for concern. However, if they persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult a healthcare provider.
For more significant side effects, such as skin thinning, discoloration, stretch marks, or small red bumps known as folliculitis, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. If you notice unusual tiredness, mood changes, or unexplained constipation, these may also require medical evaluation.
Although very rare, serious allergic reactions can occur. Symptoms such as a rash, swelling (particularly of the face, tongue, or throat), severe dizziness, or trouble breathing necessitate immediate medical help.
This summary does not include all possible side effects. If you experience any unexpected reactions, it's best to consult with a healthcare professional for advice.
