Warnings

Before taking Sensipar or any other medication, consult a healthcare provider. They have the knowledge and training to decide which medicines are right for a specific patient.

Serum calcium levels should be measured within 1 week after initiation or dose adjustment of Sensipar. Discontinue etelcalcetide for at least 4 weeks prior to starting Sensipar and ensure corrected serum calcium is at or above the lower limit of normal before Sensipar initiation. During dose titration, serum calcium levels should be monitored frequently, and appropriate steps should be taken if levels decrease below the normal range.

Patients with moderate and severe hepatic impairment should have serum calcium, serum phosphorus, and intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) levels monitored closely throughout treatment with Sensipar because cinacalcet exposure is increased in these patients. Additionally, overdosage of Sensipar may lead to hypocalcemia, and appropriate measures should be taken to correct serum calcium levels in the event of overdosage.

Sensipar treatment initiation is contraindicated if serum calcium is less than the lower limit of the normal range. Ensure corrected serum calcium is at or above the lower limit of normal prior to Sensipar initiation.

This is not an exhaustive list of warnings and precautions associated with Sensipar. Always consult a healthcare provider for personalized information and guidance regarding the use of this medication.
