1. What Sanosvit Calcium is and what it is used for
Sanosvit Calcium is a medicine in the form of a banana-flavored syrup containing calcium glubionate and calcium lactobionate as active substances.
Calcium is an essential mineral component necessary for maintaining water and electrolyte balance in the body and proper functioning of many regulatory mechanisms.
It is an essential component of bone tissue, conditions proper nerve conduction and muscle contractility.
It is necessary in the blood coagulation process. By reducing the permeability of blood vessel walls, calcium acts as an anti-edema, anti-inflammatory, and anti-allergic agent.
The organic calcium compounds contained in the medicine are easily absorbed by the body. The administration of the medicine supplements calcium deficiencies in the body and leads to a reduction in edema and allergic reactions.
Sanosvit Calcium is used for the prevention and supplementation of calcium deficiency in the body, e.g., during pregnancy or lactation, in the treatment of osteoporosis, and as a supportive treatment for allergy symptoms.

2. Important information before using Sanosvit Calcium
When not to use Sanosvit Calcium:
- if the patient is allergic to calcium glubionate or calcium lactobionate, or any other component of this medicine (listed in section 6);
- if the patient has diseases or conditions leading to hypercalcemia (elevated calcium levels in the blood) and/or hypercalciuria (elevated calcium excretion in the urine); kidney stones; galactosemia or diabetes.
Warnings and precautions
Before starting to use Sanosvit Calcium, the patient should discuss it with their doctor or pharmacist.
The patient should consult their doctor if they:
- are taking digitalis glycosides, epinephrine, tetracyclines, or thiazide diuretics;
- have kidney failure, heart disease, sarcoidosis, kidney stones, or gout.
During long-term treatment with calcium-containing medicines, high doses of the medicine, especially when taken with vitamin D and/or calcium-containing medicines or foods (e.g., milk), the patient's calcium levels in the blood and kidney function should be monitored.
Sanosvit Calcium and other medicines
The patient should inform their doctor or pharmacist about all medicines they are currently taking or have recently taken, as well as any medicines they plan to take.
Thiazide diuretics reduce calcium excretion in the urine. Due to the risk of hypercalcemia when using thiazide diuretics, the patient's calcium levels in the blood should be regularly monitored.
The medicine may interfere with the absorption of tetracyclines. Therefore, tetracyclines should be taken at least 2 hours before or 4-6 hours after taking calcium compounds.
High doses of the medicine and vitamin D may weaken the effect of verapamil and other calcium channel blockers.
High doses of calcium salts taken with digitalis glycosides (digoxin and strophanthin derivatives) may enhance their effect and lead to heart rhythm disorders.
The medicine enhances the effect of sulfonamides.
Vitamin D, glucocorticosteroids, parathyroid hormone, thiazide diuretics, and citric acid increase calcium absorption, while calcitonin, excess lipids, and phosphates reduce calcium absorption.
When bisphosphonates are used concomitantly, they should be taken at least 1 hour before taking calcium compounds, as bisphosphate absorption may be reduced.
The medicine may reduce the effectiveness of levothyroxine by reducing its absorption.
A 4-hour interval should be maintained between taking calcium compounds and levothyroxine.
The absorption of quinolone antibiotics may be reduced when taken with calcium. Quinolone antibiotics should be taken 2 hours before or 6 hours after taking calcium compounds.
Calcium salts may reduce the absorption of iron, zinc, and strontium ranelate. Therefore, a 2-hour interval is required between taking these medicines and calcium salts.
If it is necessary to use any other medicines concomitantly, the patient should consult their doctor to determine any possible changes in taking the medicine.
Using Sanosvit Calcium with food and drink
The alkaline reaction of food, phytin (e.g., grain products), oxalates (e.g., spinach, rhubarb), and phosphates (e.g., milk and its products) reduce calcium absorption.
The acidic reaction of food increases calcium absorption.
Kidney function disorders
Patients with kidney stones should drink plenty of fluids during treatment. In patients with mild hypercalciuria, kidney failure, or kidney stones, calcium levels in the blood and urine should be monitored.
Pregnancy, breastfeeding, and fertility
If the patient is pregnant or breastfeeding, thinks they may be pregnant, or plans to have a child, they should consult their doctor or pharmacist before using this medicine.
Pregnant women should avoid overdosing on calcium.

Sanosvit Calcium does not affect the ability to drive or use machines.
