What is calcitonin treatment?

Calcitonin treatment involves the use of synthetic calcitonin, typically in the form of a nasal spray or injection, to manage certain medical conditions. For example, in individuals with osteoporosis, calcitonin can be prescribed to help slow down bone loss and reduce the risk of fractures. It may also be used in the treatment of hypercalcemia (high blood calcium levels) and to alleviate pain associated with bone metastases in cancer patients. The specific dosage and administration method will depend on the individual's condition and the healthcare provider's recommendations.
