You may want to read it again. WHAT IS IN THIS LEAFLET? This leaflet answers some common questions about One- Alpha ® . It does not contain all the available information. It does not take the place of talking to your doctor or pharmacist. All medicines have risks and benefits. Your doctor has weighed the risks of you taking One-Alpha ® against the benefits they expect it will have for you. IF YOU HAVE ANY CONCERNS ABOUT TAKING THIS MEDICINE, ASK YOUR DOCTOR OR PHARMACIST. WHAT ONE-ALPHA ® IS USED FOR? ONE-ALPHA ® CAPSULES AND DROPS both contain a type of vitamin D called alfacalcidol (al-far-cal-see- dol). Vitamin D controls the levels of two substances called calcium and phosphate in your body. Your body needs both calcium and phosphate for healthy bones and teeth. One-Alpha ® works by increasing the amount of vitamin D in your body. This means the levels of calcium and phosphate in your body will increase too. ONE-ALPHA ® is used to treat diseases where the amount of calcium in your body needs changing. It is used to treat: • Changes in bone caused by kidney disease. • High or low levels of calcium in the blood due to changes in small hormone glands found in the neck. If the amount of hormone produced by these glands is increased or decreased, it can affect calcium levels in the blood. • Low levels of calcium in the blood of newborn babies. • Softening and/or a change in shape of the bones due to lack of calcium. Your doctor may have prescribed One-Alpha ® for another reason. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you have any questions about why One-Alpha ® has been prescribed for you.
