[[Hypocalcemia]] can be the consequence of multiple disease processes, some of which will be mentioned in the following discussion. Common causes of hypocalcemia include [[Vitamin D deficiency|vitamin D insufficiency]], [[hypoparathyroidism]], [[renal]] disease, [[pseudohypoparathyroidism]], [[hypomagnesemia]], drugs and [[Fanconi syndrome]] etc. | |||

Overview
Hypocalcemia can be the consequence of multiple disease processes, some of which will be mentioned in the following discussion. Common causes of hypocalcemia include vitamin D insufficiency, hypoparathyroidism, renal disease, pseudohypoparathyroidism, hypomagnesemia, drugs and Fanconi syndrome etc.
Causes

- Hypoparathyroidism
- Renal disease
- Pseudohypoparathyroidism
- Drugs like bisphosphonates
- Heavy metal (copper, iron)
