*Only for medical professionals to read and refer to vitamin D, calcitriol, alfacalcidol, etc.
, it is important to
grasp the difference!
Commonly used vitamin D and analogues are: vitamin D 2, vitamin D3, calcifediol, calcitriol, alfalciferol, paricalcitol, calcipotriol, etc
。 What is the difference between these seven vitamin D similar drugs?
First, the difference
between vitamin D2 and D 3 Vitamins D2 and D3, collectively known as vitamin D
.
Adults, in summer, the whole body skin, exposed to sunlight for 10 minutes, can produce about 10,000 U of vitamin D3
.
In regulating bone calcium metabolism, the activity of vitamin D3 is 2~4 times
that of vitamin D2.
The chemical structure
calcifediol is the main form of vitamin D in the blood, with a long half-life (12~20 days), which is an objective indicator
reflecting whether vitamin D is deficient.
Vitamin D has a long half-life (23~38 days), when the dose is large, it can accumulate in human adipose tissue, and it takes longer (2 weeks ~ 4 months) to fail after stopping the drug, and it is necessary to be alert to the risk of
hypercalcemia.
Pharmacological activity Calcitriol
can directly bind to vitamin D receptors, promote intestinal absorption of calcium, and regulate bone mineralization, which itself has biological activity
。
Paricalcitol, Idecalcidol, and Calcipotriol are derivatives of synthetic calcitriol and are active
in themselves.
Vitamin D3, calcifediol, alfacalcidol, itself inactive, need to be converted into calcitriol to have biological activity
.
The Image Source Drug Evaluation Center
remembers: vitamin D needs liver and kidney activation; Alfacalcidol requires liver activation, not kidney activation; Calcifediol requires kidney activation, not liver activation
.
Fourth, indications and dosage
Long-term excessive oral vitamin D can cause hypercalcemia

Nutritional vitamin D intake recommendations (for reference only):

Fourth, indications and dosage
Long-term excessive oral vitamin D can cause hypercalcemia
.
A moderate degree of hypercalcemia will completely inhibit the growth and development of children for more than 6 months, and the effect on height is difficult to completely correct.
Calcitriol and the like cause hypercalcemia risk is greater than vitamin D
.
1.
Rickets
Prevention of rickets: oral vitamin D (400U~800U/day) is preferred;
Treatment of rickets: oral vitamin D (1000U/day), or calcifediol (50~100μg/day).
2.
Osteoporosis
Prevention of osteoporosis: vitamin D (600~1000U/day);
Treatment of osteoporosis: Vitamin D or calcifediol
may be used.
——For patients older than 65 years old or with reduced renal function, oral calcitriol (0.
25~0.
5μg/day) or alfacalcidol (0.
25~1.
0μg/day)
are recommended.
3.
Metabolic rickets and osteomalacia
In patients with chronic kidney disease, decreased activity of 1α-hydroxylase and decreased renal synthesis of calcitriol, can cause osteomalacia and renal osteodystrophy
.
Calcitriol is preferred, 0.
25~0.
5μg each time, 1~2 times a day; or alfacalcidol, 0.
5 μg once
daily.
4.
Hypoparathyroidism
Calcitriol is preferred, starting with 0.
25 micrograms daily in the morning
.
5.
Secondary hyperparathyroidism in patients with chronic renal failure undergoing hemodialysis
Paricalcitol can inhibit the synthesis and secretion of parathyroid hormone by binding to vitamin D receptors, and has little
effect on blood calcium and phosphorus.
0.
04~0.
1μg, single injection, administered at any time during dialysis
.
6.
Treatment of psoriasis
Calcipotriene, topical application can directly bind to vitamin D receptors in skin cells, inhibit the proliferation of psoriasis skin lesions, etc
.
Calcipotrienel is used topically, about 1%-5% can be absorbed
through the skin.
Exceeding the recommended dosage may result in elevated
serum calcium.
