Consumer:

Paricalcitol, a vitamin D analog, reduces hyperparathyroidism associated with chronic renal failure without significant increase in serum calcium levels. Serum calcium and phosphate concentrations can increase during therapy with paricalcitol and may exacerbate arrhythmias, particularly in patients receiving cardiac glycosides. Therapy with vitamin D analogs should be administered cautiously in patients with or predisposed to cardiac arrhythmias. Clinical monitoring of serum electrolyte concentrations and cardiac function is recommended. .
