Cal-Rsodate Injection 5 ml

Cal-Rsodate Injection 5 ml belongs to a group of medicines called chelating agents. It is used to treat lead poisoning (both acute and chronic) and lead encephalopathy in both children and adults. Chronic lead poisoning happens when lead builds up in the body over months or years. Even small quantities of lead can lead to significant health issues. Lead encephalopathy is a severe late-stage complication of lead poisoning, often affecting the brain’s blood vessels, and it is more commonly seen in children than adults.

Cal-Rsodate Injection 5 ml contains Edetate calcium disodium, which works by moving into tissues, primarily the kidneys and bones, where it binds to lead ions by replacing them with calcium. The lead is then removed from the body through urine.

Common side effects of Cal-Rsodate Injection 5 ml include fever, tiredness, headache, nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, joint or muscle pain, skin rash, and injection site pain. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and tend to resolve gradually over time. However, if the side effects persist, please contact your doctor.
