Consumer:Using lithium together with a calcitonin can make lithium less effective. Talk to you doctor before using these medications together. This can cause drowsiness, dizziness, weakness, vomiting, diarrhea, thirst, blurry vision, or increased urination. If you take both medications together, tell your doctor if you have any of these symptoms. You may need a dose adjustment or special test if you take both medications. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.
Professional:MONITOR: Calcitonin may decrease serum lithium levels by up to 30%. The mechanism may be related to an increase in lithium elimination or a decrease in lithium absorption caused by calcitonin.
MANAGEMENT: Lithium levels should be measured frequently and dosage adjustments made accordingly if these drugs are given concurrently. Patients should be advised to notify their physician if they experience drowsiness, dizziness, weakness, ataxia, vomiting, diarrhea, thirst, blurry vision, or increased urination.
