Calcium gluconate is an intravenous medication used to treat hypocalcemia, hyperkalemia, hypermagnesemia, and for calcium channel blocker overdose. It is an approved drug with longstanding use in emergency and hospital settings.
Estimated pharmacokinetic parameters for adult individuals. No direct human PK studies with explicit parameter values are publicly available for calcium gluconate; data are estimated based on physicochemical similarity to calcium chloride and clinical context.
