Overview
The mainstay of treatment for pseudohypoparathyroidism is oral calcium and 1alpha-hydroxylated vitamin D analogues, such as calcitriol. Other forms of Vitamin D cannot be used as parathyroid hormone resistance in the proximal tubule decreases the efficiency of production of 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D from 25-hydroxyvitamin D.Intravenous calcium is recommended for all patients who develop severe symptomatic hypocalcemia.
Medical Therapy
- The mainstay of treatment for pseudohypoparathyroidism is oral calcium and 1alpha-hydroxylated vitamin D metabolites, such as calcitriol. [1]
- Other forms of Vitamin D cannot be used as parathyroid hormone resistance in the proximal tubule decreases the production of 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D from 25-hydroxyvitamin D.Intravenous calcium is recommended for all patients who develop severe symptomatic hypocalcemia.
- The majority of cases of pseudohypoparathyroidism are self-limited and require only supportive care.
- The goal of therapy is to:
- Serum calcium within the normal range to prevent hypercalciuria
- Maintain parathyroid hormone levels within reference range which helps prevent bone remodeling and hyperparathyroid bone disease
- Intravenous calcium is recommended for all patients who develop severe symptomatic hypocalcemia.
- Adult
- Preferred regimen (1):elemental calcium (either calcium chloride or calcium gluconate) 100 mg of over 10 to 20 minute
- An additional dose of 100 mg/hr of elemental calcium can be infused if symptoms do not resolve, with close monitoring of calcium levels
- Cardiac monitoring may help to guide therapy as rapid infusion of calcium can cause cardiac conduction defects;
- Preferred regimen (2):Parenteral formulations available are calcium chloride and calcium gluconate 100 mg of over 10 to 20 minute
- 10% calcium chloride a 10-mL ampule contains 360 mg of elemental calcium
- 10% calcium gluconate 10-mL ampule contains 93 mg of elemental calcium.
- For neonates, infants, and children
- Preferred regimen (1):10% calcium gluconate 0.5-1 mL/kg of administered over 5 minutes.
