Hyperphosphatemia is an electrolyte disturbance in which there is an abnormally elevated level of phosphate in the blood.[1] Often, calcium levels are lowered (hypocalcemia) due to precipitation of phosphate with the calcium in tissues. Average phosphorus levels should be between 0.81 mmol/L and 1.45 mmol/L.

Are methylcobalamin, l-methylfolate calcium & pyridoxal-5-phosphate tablets good for your pregnancy or not? Because 1 month back when we consulted a doctor she suggested us to use these for 3 months daily (1 tablet). ## These are just nutritional supplements that are often given to help ensure you take in enough of these vital nutrients for your health, as well as the health of your baby. The NIH warns that they may sometimes cause nausea, due to their potency. When are you due? Congratulations on the pregnancy!

CIPCAL-500 is a product containing Calcium and Vitamin D.What are the benefits and disadvantages of taking one tablet daily for one month? ## Vitamin D promotes calcium absorption in the gut and maintains adequate serum calcium and phosphate concentrations to enable normal mineralization of bone and to prevent hypocalcemic tetany. Without sufficient vitamin D, bones can become thin, brittle, or misshapen. Vitamin D sufficiency prevents rickets in children and osteomalacia in adults. Together with calcium, vitamin D also helps protect older adults from osteoporosis. The only reason to supplement calcium and vitamin D in my opinion, is if you're not getting at least 30min to an hour of sunlight each and everyday. Also if your not getting enough calcium in your diet then having it with...
