What is the function of calcium gluconate?
Disease description:
I haven't been feeling well lately, and the doctor gave me some calcium gluconate. I'd like to ask, what is this medication used for?
Generally, calcium gluconate can replenish the calcium deficiency in the human body, increase bone density, and provide essential bone nutrition. It is clinically used to treat conditions such as osteoporosis in the elderly and hypocalcemia. Calcium gluconate is an essential nutrient for the human body. Clinically, it helps reduce capillary permeability, maintain nervous system excitability and normal muscle function, enhance cardiac contractility, and has a protective effect on the heart. Patients are advised to take this medication as directed by their physician to avoid adverse effects.
