Calcitriol
Calcitrol is the hormonally active form of vitamin D . It increases the level of calcium (Ca2+) in the blood by increasing the uptake of calcium from the gut into the blood, decreasing the transfer of calcium from blood to the urine by the kidney, and increasing the release of calcium into the blood from bone. Calcitriol is marketed under various trade names including Rocaltrol Calcijex and Decostriol. It is used for
- Treatment of hypocalcaemia – hypoparathyroidism, osteomalacia (adults), rickets (infants, children), renal osteodystrophy, chronic renal dialysis
- Treatment of osteoporosis
- Prevention of corticosteroid-induced osteoporosis
Calcitriol is also sometimes used topically in the treatment of psoriasis, however the evidence to support its efficacy is not well established. The vitamin D analogue calcipotriol is more commonly used for psoriasis. Research on the noncalcemic actions of calcitriol and other VDR-ligand analogs and their possible therapeutic applications has been reviewed.
