Risks and warnings

You should know the risks and warnings of CaC-1000 Plus to prevent its misuse.

There are some specific circumstances under which the use of certain medications is contraindicated or considered dangerous. So when taking any medicine it's always a good practice to familiarize yourself with its risks and warnings.

The risks and warnings associated with CaC-1000 Plus are:

  • Pregnancy or breastfeeding:

Although it is safe to take CaC-1000 Plus during pregnancy and lactation, caution must be observed when administering higher doses. Follow the instructions given by your healthcare provider.

  • Kidney stones:

People with a history of kidney stones, or with a family history of kidney stones should take CaC 1000 upon consultation with their doctor. While CaC 1000 is safe for patients with kidney stones or a history thereof, it can still increase the propensity towards the development of kidney stones and should be used with caution.

  • Hypercalcemia:

Hypercalcemia refers to raised levels of calcium in the blood. There are various reasons behind this spike, including dehydration, thyroid disease, and malignancy. Severe hypercalcemia can result in osteoporosis, kidney stones, kidney failure, impaired nervous system, and arrhythmia. Thus, people with hypercalcemia should take CaC 1000 with caution

  • Heart patients:

People with a history of heart diseases like angina and heart attack should consult their doctor before taking CaC 1000. As calcium supplements can increase the risk of heart diseases, therefore, people should confer with an expert first.

  • Stroke:

According to research, calcium supplements can increase the risk of stroke. Individuals with a family history of stroke are therefore suggested to consult their healthcare provider before using CaC 1000.

  • Altered kidney function:

Our kidneys process waste products and toxins. When they are not working at full capacity, due to any disease or disorder, this processing ability gets compromised.

People suffering from altered kidney function should thus take calcium supplements with caution, as their kidneys are unable to process the supplement at a regular rate. Calcium then persists in the system and poses the danger of hypercalcemia.
