Patient Concerns about Ostospray Products

Frequently asked questions about Ostospray Products

Frequently asked questions about Calcitonin (Salmon)

Q. Does Ostospray need to be refrigerated?
Yes, an unopened bottle of Ostospray need to be refrigerated. It should be kept at a temperature between 2°C and 8°C. Do not freeze. After opening the bottle of Ostospray, store it at room temperature between 15°C and 30°C.
Q. Does Ostospray increase bone density?
Ostospray contains calcitonin which is a hormone that is naturally produced by the thyroid gland and is responsible for maintaining calcium balance in the body. Ostospray decreases the bone loss and damage in patients with osteoporosis. In some cases, it also helps in bone formation by activating the bone forming cells, thereby increasing the bone density.
Q. Can Ostospray reduce the calcium levels in blood?
Yes, Ostospray can reduce the levels of calcium in the blood. If the calcium levels in your blood drop down severely then it can present with numbness or tingling in your fingers, toes, or around your mouth. The blood calcium levels need to be monitored in such cases. Immediately contact your doctor if you experience any such symptoms.
Q. How should I use Ostospray?
Follow the directions given by your prescriber and do ask him in case of any doubts. Usually, it is to be given in single nostril once daily. To start with we take 1 spray in left nostril on day 1, followed by right nostril on the second day. Continue to take the medicine inside the nose by switching nostrils every alternate day. Each bottle is set to deliver 30 doses. Do not use the bottle after 30 days.
Q. Is it fine to use Ostospray in pregnant women?
Generally, Ostospray is not recommended for pregnant women. However, enough evidence is not available to suggest risk associated with the use of Ostospray causing birth defects or miscarriage in pregnant women. Ostospray should be used in pregnant women with utmost caution. It is used only if the prescribing doctor finds potential benefit to be much larger than the risk involved.
