About
Calcium lactate is a white crystalline salt.It forms several hydrates, the most common being the pentahydrate C6H10CaO6·5H2O.
Chemical Formula
C6H10CaO6
Uses
Calcium lactate is used in medicine, mainly to treat calcium deficiencies and as a food additive with E number of E327.
CAS- No.
814-80-2
Calcium lactate has several uses in human and veterinary medicine.
Calcium lactate is used in medicine as an antacid.[citation needed]
Calcium lactate is also used to treat hypocalcaemia (calcium deficiencies). It can be absorbed at various pHs, thus it does not need to be taken with food. However, in this use it has been found to be less convenient than calcium citrate.
In the early 20th century, oral administration of calcium lactate dissolved in water (but not in milk or tablets) was found to be effective in prevention of tetany in humans and dogs with parathyroid insufficiency or who underwent parathyroidectomy.
The compound is also found in some over the counter mouth washes.
