Description
Alfa D 0.5mcg Tablet - Alfacalcidol for Bone Weakness and Pain
Alfa D 0.5mcg Tablet contains alfacalcidol (1-alpha-hydroxyvitamin D3), a vitamin D analogue prescribed to prevent and treat bone weakness and bone pain linked to disorders of calcium and vitamin D metabolism. It supports proper bone mineralization by enhancing intestinal calcium absorption and helping regulate serum phosphate.
The 0.5mcg strength is a mid-range dose, often used as a step-up from 0.25mcg when calcium normalization is incomplete, or as a maintenance dose in conditions such as osteoporosis with low active vitamin D, hypocalcemia, renal bone disease, and hypoparathyroidism. For lower- or higher-dose options, see Alfa D 0.25mcg and Alfa-D 1mcg Capsule, or explore the wider bone health collection.
Hypercalcaemia monitoring required: Regular blood tests are essential during alfacalcidol therapy. The risk of hypercalcaemia rises with higher doses, added calcium supplements, thiazide diuretics, or kidney impairment. Report nausea, vomiting, constipation, excessive thirst, frequent urination, headache, weakness, or confusion to your doctor - these may signal high calcium. Adjust dose only on medical advice; avoid extra over-the-counter vitamin D unless prescribed.
