WHAT SENSIPAR IS USED
FOR
Sensipar is used to treat:
•
a condition called secondary
hyperparathyroidism (high-per-
para-THIGH-royd-izm) in people
with kidney disease who require
dialysis treatment.
•
a condition called primary
hyperparathyroidism when
surgical removal of the
parathyroid gland is not a
treatment option.
•
high blood calcium levels in
people with cancer of the
parathyroid gland.
SECONDARY HYPERPARATHYROIDISM
Kidney disease can cause a condition
called secondary
hyperparathyroidism, which can have
a big impact on your health. Four
small glands located behind the
thyroid gland in your neck are called
parathyroid glands. They make a
hormone called parathyroid hormone
(PTH). Normally, PTH makes sure
you have just enough calcium and
phosphorus in your blood to keep
your bones, heart, muscles, nerves
and blood vessels working well.
When your kidneys are working
properly, PTH keeps your calcium
and phosphorus levels normal by
moving the right amounts of calcium
and phosphorus in and out of your
bones.
When your kidneys aren't working
properly, the calcium and phosphorus
balance in your body is upset, and
your parathyroid glands send out too
much PTH to your body. This
condition is called secondary
hyperparathyroidism, and it can
cause bone disease and also may be a
risk factor for heart disease and
abnormal calcium deposits in blood
vessels and other parts of the body.
