Overview
Medical Therapy
Medical therapy for hyperparathyroidism due to parathyroid adenoma should be considered in the following circumstances:[1]
- Patients with hyperparathyroidism not meeting the guidelines for surgery.
- Patients with hyperparathyroidism having contraindications to surgery.
- Patient with hyperparathyroidism who have previous unsuccessful neck exploration.
- Patient with hyperparathyroidism who have not been cured by surgery.
- Patient with hyperparathyroidism refuses surgery.
Medical Management
- 1. Primary hyperparathyroidism
- 1.1 Nutritional supplementation[2]
- 1.1.1 Low calcium intake[3]
- Preferred regimen (1): Elemental calcium 500 mg PO q24h
- Note: Dietary calcium restriction is not necessary in primary hyperparathyroidism.
- 1.1.2 Vitamin D depletion
- Preferred regimen (1): Cholecalciferol 600–1000 IU PO q24h
- Note(1): Vitamin D deficiency is considered when serum level of 25-hydroxy vitamin D is below 50 nM (20 ng/mL).[4]
- Note(2): Serum calcium levels and urinary calcium excretion should be monitored during vitamin D supplementation. Vitamin D supplementation should be stopped if serum calcium levels is >11.6 mg/dL and/or urinary calcium excretion is >400 mg/24 h.
- Note(3): The goal of vitamin D supplementation is to keep 25-hydroxy vitamin D level between 50 nmol/L to 75 nmol/L.
- 1.1.1 Low calcium intake[3]
- 1.2 Pharmacotherapy
- 1.2.1 Bisphosphonates
- Preferred regimen (1): Alendronate 10 mg PO q24h[5][6]
- 1.2.2 Calcimimetics
- Preferred regimen (1): Cinacalcet HCl 30-120 mg PO q12h[7][8]
- Note(1): Cinacalcet may be used in patients with familial primary hyperparathyroidism as a treatment option for patients having recurrent or persistent hypercalcemia after parathyroidectomy.
- Note(2): A combination of bisphosphonates and calcimimetics may be used to reduce the serum calcium and improve bone mineral density.[9]
- 1.2.3 Estrogen receptor-targeted therapy (post-menopausal women)
- Preferred regimen (1): Conjugated equine estrogen 0.625 mg q24h + medroxyprogesterone acetate 5mg q24h
- Note(1): The risk-benefit ratio should be assessed with respect to known relative or absolute contraindication to use of estrogen in each patient.
- 1.2.1 Bisphosphonates
- 1.1 Nutritional supplementation[2]
