Generic One-alpha
Alfacalcidol is an active metabolite of Vitamin D, which performs important functions in regulation of the calcium balance and the bone metabolism. Alfacalcidol is Vitamin D-hormone analog which is activated by the enzyme 25-hydroxylase in the liver for systemic and in osteoblasts for local D-hormone actions. It possesses a unique pattern of pleiotropic effects on, e.g. gut, bone, pararthyroids, muscle and brain. Alfacalcidol is superior to plain vitamin D (cholecalciferol) because the final kidney activation of the latter is regulated by a negative feedback mechanism. Although alfacalcidol is widely used in the treatment of osteoporosis, its mechanism of action in bone is not fully understood. Alfacalcidol stimulates intestinal calcium (Ca) absorption, increases urinary Ca excretion and serum Ca levels, and suppresses parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion.

I just recently arrived home from a long road trip and found that my order was here safe and secure, right on schedule, with a 4 pill "bonus"!! A little note ensued thanking me for my order and I just wanted to say thank you for your generosity and professionalism. I was a bit wary of ordering from an online pharmacy, especially overseas....but I came to be extremely happy with the service and the product. My sex life is back!!! I will absolutely place any and all future orders through your site. - Best Regards, Eric
