Mimcina 30 Tablet 10's belongs to the class of medications called 'calcimimetics' used to treat primary hyperparathyroidism, secondary hyperparathyroidism, and parathyroid-carcinoma. Primary hyperparathyroidism is a condition in which one or more parathyroid glands make too much parathyroid hormone (PTH). Secondary hyperparathyroidism is the medical condition of excessive secretion of parathyroid hormone (PTH) by the parathyroid glands in response to hypocalcemia (low blood calcium levels), with resultant hyperplasia (increase in the number of cells) of these glands. Parathyroid cancer is a rare disease in which malignant (cancer) cells form in a parathyroid gland's tissues.
Mimcina 30 Tablet 10's contains 'cinacalcet', which works by signalling the body to produce a less parathyroid hormone to decrease the amount of calcium in the blood.
In some cases, Mimcina 30 Tablet 10's may cause common side effects like vomiting, nausea, rash, headache, muscle pain, and diarrhoea. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, consult a doctor.
Do not take Mimcina 30 Tablet 10's if you are allergic to ‘cinacalcet’ or other ingredients. Inform your doctor if you are taking any other medicines other than Mimcina 30 Tablet 10's. Before taking Mimcina 30 Tablet 10's, inform your doctor if you have chronic kidney disease, gastrointestinal bleeding, heart failure, liver diseases, or cardiac arrhythmia. Mimcina 30 Tablet 10's is not recommended in hypotension and hypocalcemia. Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
