One-Alpha Capsules – Alfacalcidol, 30 Capsules

Introducing One-Alpha Capsules, a prescription-only product designed to address various medical conditions related to calcium and phosphate levels in the body. Each One-Alpha capsule contains the active substance alfacalcidol, which belongs to the group of medicines known as vitamin D analogues.

Vitamin D plays a crucial role in regulating the levels of calcium and phosphate in the body, which are essential for maintaining healthy bones and teeth. By increasing the amount of vitamin D in your body, One-Alpha works to enhance the levels of these vital substances.

One Alpha capsules are primarily used to treat conditions where the calcium levels in the body need adjustment. These conditions include osteodystrophy, a bone disorder caused by kidney failure, and changes to the parathyroid glands, which produce the parathyroid hormone responsible for regulating calcium levels. One-Alpha can effectively address hyperparathyroidism (excessive calcium levels) or hypoparathyroidism (insufficient calcium levels) caused by malfunctioning parathyroid glands.

Additionally, One-Alpha is prescribed for newborn babies with low levels of calcium in their blood, a condition known as hypocalcaemia. Furthermore, it is also effective in treating rickets or osteomalacia, conditions characterized by the softening and deformity of bones due to a lack of calcium.

Moreover, One-Alpha capsules have also been approved for veterinary use, allowing veterinarians to prescribe them for cats and dogs to address specific health conditions.

One-Alpha Capsules are available in three different strengths to cater to individual needs and dosage requirements.

These strengths include One-Alpha 0.25mcg Capsules, One-Alpha 0.5mcg Capsules, and One-Alpha 1mcg Capsules. The range of options ensures that healthcare professionals can prescribe the most suitable dosage for optimal treatment outcomes.

Manufactured by Leo Pharmaceuticals, One-Alpha Capsules are a physical product that can be conveniently obtained from pharmacies or shipped directly to your doorstep. With its scientifically formulated composition and reputable manufacturer, One-Alpha Capsules provide a reliable solution for individuals and their pets struggling with calcium-related disorders.
