Alfacalcidol

A synthetic vitamin D analogue (1-alpha-hydroxycholecalciferol), synthesised in the early 1970s and in use since 1978 for bone and calcium disorders in chronic kidney disease. This family brings together the active ingredient, pharmacopoeial impurities, labelled standards and other impurities.

Did you know?It already carries the 1-alpha-hydroxyl group and is converted in the liver into calcitriol, the active form of vitamin D: this is why it works even when the kidneys can no longer activate vitamin D.
