Calcifediol-d₆ monohydrate  (Synonyms: 25-hydroxy Vitamin D3-d₆ monohydrate)

Calcifediol-d₆ monohydrate is the deuterium labeled Calcifediol monohydrate. Calcifediol monohydrate (25-hydroxy Vitamin D3 monohydrate), is an effective VDR ligand and VD supplement. Calcifediol is a prohormone of the vitamin D endocrine system (VDES) and is hydroxylated in the liver to produce the active form, calcitriol. Calcifediol can rapidly increase serum VD levels^[1][2][3].

Stable heavy isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, and other elements have been incorporated into drug molecules, largely as tracers for quantitation during the drug development process. Deuteration has gained attention because of its potential to affect the pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles of drugs^[1].

MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
