Dihydrotachysterol

A synthetic vitamin D analogue introduced in 1933 by Friedrich Holtz to treat postoperative tetany: unlike vitamin D it is activated in the liver and does not need hydroxylation in the kidneys. This family brings together the active ingredient.

Did you know?Its first name was "A.T. 10", short for anti-tetany preparation No. 10; it derives from tachysterol, a by-product of the light-driven formation of vitamin D.
