Calcium gluconate is used in calcium deficiency.
Calcium is absorbed from the small intestine; about one third of ingested calcium is absorbed. Absorption decreases with age and may be more efficient when the body is deficient in calcium or from diets deficient in calcium. It is excreted in sweat, bile, pancreatic juice, saliva, urine, faeces and milk.
There are no pre-clinical data of relevance to the prescriber which are additional to that already included in other sections of the SPC.
