Calcitonin reducerer markant knogleomsætningen i tilstande med øget knogleresorptionshastighed, såsom Paget’ s sygdom og akut knogletab på grund af pludselig immobilisering.
Calcitonin markedly reduces bone turnover in conditions with an increased rate of bone resorption such as Paget ‘ s disease disease and acute bone loss due to sudden immobilisation.
