Calcium chloride is an inorganic salt commonly used as a source of calcium in clinical medicine, notably for the treatment of hypocalcemia, hyperkalemia, and as a cardiac resuscitation adjunct for severe hypermagnesemia or calcium channel blocker toxicity. It is administered intravenously due to poor oral bioavailability and potential gastrointestinal irritation. Calcium chloride is approved for use in emergency medicine and critical care.
Pharmacokinetics
Estimated pharmacokinetics for healthy adults following a single intravenous bolus administration. No peer-reviewed population PK models found.
