    Drug Study - Vitamin D

    Uploaded by

    EzKhen Edits
    Mrs. ABCD, age 29, was prescribed calciferol (vitamin D) to treat a vitamin D deficiency. She was instructed to take 10mcg orally once per day. Calcifero stimulates calcium and phosphate absorption and helps regulate levels in the blood. It has a half-life of 15 hours and is absorbed through the GI tract and excreted in urine. Nurses should monitor the patient for potential adverse effects like hypercalcemia if given for an extended period or in high doses.
