CALCIJET 1MCG INJECTION 1ML

CALCIJET 1MCG INJECTION 1ML is used to treat or prevent some complications associated with long-term kidney dialysis, such as low calcium levels (Hypocalcaemia). Hypocalcaemia is characterized by low levels of calcium in the blood. A lack or inadequacy of vitamin D can cause hypocalcaemia.
