Which calcium tablets are best to take after thyroid surgery

After thyroid surgery, if you have hypocalcemia, osteoporosis, tetany, etc., you can take calcium tablets, such as calcium gluconate tablets. As each patient’s condition is different, there is no such thing as the “best” calcium tablets, and you should take the medication under the guidance of your doctor or pharmacist, as the best one is the one that suits you. If the parathyroid glands are mistakenly cut during thyroid surgery, the postoperative period can lead to permanent hypoparathyroidism and hypocalcemia, which can be manifested as numbness of the limbs, mental anxiety, depression, and is typically manifested as hypocalcemic convulsions, which require supplementation of vitamin D and calcium, and should be fed a high-calcium, low-phosphorus diet in normal times. Acute hypocalcemia appears hand and foot convulsions, can be slowly intravenous injection of calcium gluconate relief. Calcium gluconate tablets and other calcium tablets can also be used for the prevention and treatment of other calcium deficiencies, such as osteoporosis, osteogenesis imperfecta, rickets, as well as calcium supplementation for children, pregnant and lactating women, menopausal women, and the elderly. It is contraindicated in patients with hypercalcemia, hypercalciuria, calcium-containing kidney stones or a history of kidney stones. Calcium supplementation after thyroid surgery should be carried out under the guidance of a doctor, not self-medication.
