The medication is taken orally, usually once daily, according to the doctor's instructions. It is effective in preventing and treating symptoms associated with low calcium levels.
Side effects may include hypercalcemia, nausea, vomiting, excessive thirst, and, in rare cases, tissue calcifications. Regular monitoring of calcium levels is essential during treatment.
