ZEMPLAR (PARICALCITOL): Paricalcitol is used to treat and prevent high levels of a certain natural substance made by the body (parathyroid hormone) in patients with long-term kidney disease. In these patients, the high level of parathyroid hormone is caused by a low level of calcium and a certain kind of vitamin D. Too much parathyroid hormone can cause serious problems such as bone disorders. Paricalcitol is a man-made form of vitamin D. It helps to reduce parathyroid hormone levels and may help your body absorb calcium and phosphorus. (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)

This white cottage-cheese discharge is freaky and disgusting and is not what comes to mind when I read "discharge".

After 6 years of taking it, I developed such extreme anxiety and panic disorder that I was convinced I was going crazy, as schizophrenia runs in my family. I had no control over my thoughts, which were so scary and demented that it was virtually intolerable. I had one suicide attempt year 6 of taking it. Over the 7 years I became agoraphobic. I didn't attribute my troubles to Singulair, instead believing I was mentally ill. My mom told me about the news reports and I discontinued Singulair. My doctor said to give it 1 month to get out of my system. By day 3, I noticed extreme changes for the better. It's day 11, and I haven't felt this normal since before taking Singulair. All anxiety has disappeared. I think normal again, depression has lifted. I'm dumbfounded that my "mental illness" wasn't an illness at all. I can't beli
