One Alpha 1 Mcg 100 Capsules

One alpha 1 is a dietary supplement product that contains the active ingredient Alfacalcidol, a synthetic form of vitamin D (a vitamin D analog). It is used to treat calcium metabolism disorders, especially in cases of impaired kidney function.

Benefits and Uses

• One-Alpha contains the active ingredient Alfacalcidol, which is a synthetic form of vitamin D (a vitamin D analog).

• This medication works by increasing vitamin D levels in the body, which helps raise calcium and phosphate levels in the blood—both essential for healthy bones and teeth.

Indications

One-Alpha is used to treat conditions that require regulation of calcium levels in the body, such as:

• Bone disorders due to kidney failure (renal osteodystrophy)

• Parathyroid gland disorders

• Hypocalcemia in newborns

• Softening or deformation of bones due to calcium deficiency (e.g., rickets or osteomalacia)

• In some cases, it is also used to treat osteoporosis.

How to Use

• The appropriate daily dose is determined by the doctor.

• Adult dosage:

• The usual initial dose is 1 microgram daily (equivalent to one brown capsule or four white capsules).

• The typical daily dose ranges from 1 to 3 micrograms.

• Once blood tests show the treatment is effective, most patients continue on a dose between 0.25 to 1 microgram daily (one brown or one white capsule).

• Your doctor will determine the appropriate dose for you.

• Elderly dosage:

• The usual starting dose is 0.5 micrograms daily (equivalent to two white capsules).

• Your doctor will determine the appropriate dose.

• Children’s dosage:

• The dose is calculated based on the child’s weight.

• Your doctor will determine the appropriate dose for your child.
