Study of indapamide for low calcium after thyroid surgery
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial tests if a blood pressure medication called indapamide can help people who have low calcium levels after having their thyroid (or parathyroid) glands removed. It may help reduce the need for high doses of vitamin D.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have had surgery that removed your parathyroid glands and have had low calcium for more than one year.
- You are at least 18 years old.
- You take at least 1 microgram of active vitamin D every day.
- Your calcium level is slightly low (between 1.15-1.25 mmol/L) and your vitamin D level is sufficient.
- You can read and understand Danish.
- You do not have severe kidney disease, active cancer, or other conditions that affect calcium balance.

This study aims to find ways to detect and prevent low parathyroid function after thyroid surgery. If you are having your whole thyroid removed, joining could help researchers learn how to improve recovery.
This trial tests two diuretics (indapamide and chlorthalidone) to see if they reduce the risk of forming new calcium kidney stones. It may help people who have had at least two calcium-based kidney stones in the past 10 years.
This study looks at why some people develop low calcium levels after thyroid surgery. It aims to understand risk factors by reviewing medical records of patients who had their thyroid removed at Minia University Hospital.
This study tests whether taking calcium plus vitamin D before thyroid surgery prevents a common side effect—low blood calcium after the operation. You'd receive either calcium alone or calcium with vitamin D, and the researchers will track which works better.
This trial tests an experimental drug called Canvuparatide against a placebo to see if it can help adults with a condition called hypoparathyroidism, where the body doesn't make enough parathyroid hormone. The goal is to improve calcium levels and reduce the need for high-dose calcium and vitamin D supplements.
This trial studies whether a special “dye” imaging test during total thyroid surgery can help preserve your parathyroid gland function, which is important for calcium balance. It may reduce the risk of low calcium after surgery.
