ACTION AND CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Calcium is the fifth most abundant element in the body and the major
fraction is in the bone structure.
Calcium plays important physiological roles, many of which are poorly
understood. It is essential for
the functional integrity of the nervous and muscular systems. It is
necessary for normal cardiac function
and is one of the factors that operates in the mechanisms involved in
the coagulation of blood.
Calcium chloride in water dissociates to provide calcium (Ca
++
) and chloride (CI
-
) ions. They are
normal constituents of the body fluids and are dependent on various
physiologic mechanisms for
maintenance of balance between intake and output. Approximately 80% of
body calcium is excreted
in the feces as insoluble salts; urinary excretion accounts for the
remaining 20%.
INDICATIONS AND CLINICAL USES
Calcium Chloride Injection BP is indicated:
1)
for the treatment of hypocalcemia in those conditions requiring a
prompt increase in blood
plasma calcium levels,
2)
in the treatment of magnesium intoxication due to overdosage of
magnesium sulfate and
3)
to combat the deleterious effects of hyperkalemia as measured by
electrocardiography
(ECG), pending correction of the increased potassium level in the
extracellular fluid.
Calcium Chloride Injection BP may also be used in cardiac
resuscitation when weak or inadequate
contraction
