Parenteral administration of calcium is indicated in the treatment of hypocalcaemia where a rapid increase in plasma calcium is required, such as in hypocalcaemic tetany and tetany due to parathyroid deficiency.

NEW ZEALAND DATA SHEET 1. CALCIUM CHLORIDE 10% (INJECTION) Calcium chloride dihydrate 1 g in 10 mL injection solution 2. QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE COMPOSITION Calcium Chloride 10% injection is available in 10 mL vials containing 1 g calcium chloride dihydrate. Each gram of calcium chloride dihydrate represents approximately 6.8 mmol (13.6 mEq) calcium and 13.6 mmol (13.6 mEq) chloride ions. Each mL of the 10 mL vial contains 0.68 mmol (1.36 mEq) calcium. For the full list of excipients, see Section 6.1 List of Excipients. 3. PHARMACEUTICAL FORM Injection, solution. Calcium Chloride 10% injection is a clear, colourless, sterile solution of calcium chloride dihydrate in Water for Injections BP with a pH of between 5.0 and 8.0. 4. CLINICAL PARTICULARS 4.1. THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS Parenteral administration of calcium is indicated in the treatment of hypocalcaemia where a rapid increase in plasma calcium is required, such as in hypocalcaemic tetany and tetany due to parathyroid deficiency. Intravenous calcium is also indicated to antagonise the cardiotoxicity of hyperkalaemia. 4.2. DOSE AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION Calcium Chloride 10% injection should not be administered if the solution is cloudy or contains particles. After use, the unused portion of each vial must be discarded. The injection should not be given via the subcutaneous or intramuscular route. Use in one patient on one occasion only and discard. Each mL of Calcium Chloride 10% injection contains approximately 0.68 mmol of calcium ions and 1.36 mmol chloride ions. To aid in converting: 1 g elemental calcium = 25 mmol elemental calcium = 50 mEq elemental calcium = 3.7 g calcium chloride. Calcium chloride must be administered slowly via a small needle into a large vein at a rate not exceeding 0.35 – 0.7 mmol (0.7 – 1.4 mEq) per minute to avoid venous damage and to prevent a high concentration of calcium reaching the heart and causing syncope. The injection should be stopped if the patient experiences pain or redness at the injection site as this may Przeczytaj cały dokument
