Osteoporosis Home > Miacalcin Nasal Spray
General considerations for when and how to use Miacalcin nasal spray include the following:
- The medication comes as a nasal spray. It is usually taken once a day as one spray, alternating nostrils each day.
- You can take it with or without food.
- You can take it at any time of the day, but it is a good idea to take it at the same time each day.
- The first time you use each bottle of Miacalcin nasal spray, you will need to prime the pump by spraying until a fine mist appears.
- You do not need to try to inhale the medication. It is absorbed into the body from the nasal tissues. Also, you do not need to tip your head back.
- Once you assemble a bottle of Miacalcin nasal spray, it must be stored in the upright position, not on its side.
- For the medication to work properly, it must be taken as prescribed. It will not work if you stop taking it.
There is only one recommended dose of Miacalcin nasal spray, regardless of your age, weight, or other medical conditions. As is always the case, do not adjust your dose unless your healthcare provider specifically instructs you to do so.
