Taking additional calcium or vitamin D supplements along with teriparatide may lead to excessively high calcium levels, which can have adverse effects on the kidneys and other organs.

Medications Affecting Calcium Metabolism: Medications that affect calcium levels, such as thiazide diuretics or certain antacids, could potentially interact with teriparatide. Your healthcare provider may need to monitor your calcium levels closely if you're taking such medications concurrently.
