Calpuf Nasal Spray 60 mdi contains Calcitonin, a calcitonin receptor agonist that prevents the loss of bones that happens after menopause and helps to rebuild bones. Calcitonin is a hormone that the C-cells in the thyroid gland produce and release. It opposes the parathyroid hormone's action, helping regulate the blood’s calcium and phosphate levels. Calpuf Nasal Spray 60 mdi works by suppressing the activity of the osteoclasts (cells that break down bone). When the osteoclasts break down bone tissue, the calcium enters the bloodstream. Calpuf Nasal Spray 60 mdi lessens the amount of calcium in the blood by preventing the breakdown of bone. Thereby, Calpuf Nasal Spray 60 mdi strengthens the bones and minimizes the risk of fractures. Calpuf Nasal Spray 60 mdi also seems to decrease the amount of calcium the kidneys can re-absorb, lowering calcium levels further.
