Calcium chloride is acidifying. Therapy with calcium chloride should be administered cautiously in patients with or predisposed to acidosis, including those with renal disease, cor pulmonale, severe respiratory obstruction, or respiratory failure. Calcium chloride should not be administered as therapy for hypocalcemia in patients with acidosis associated with renal failure. Clinical monitoring of acid/base balance and calcium concentrations is necessary during calcium chloride therapy.
