Secondary Hyperparathyroidism

Secondary Hyperparathyroidism, also known as hyperparathyroidism, secondary, is related to secondary hyperparathyroidism of renal origin and vitamin d-dependent rickets.

The drugs Calcium acetate and Atorvastatin have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include kidney and bone, and related phenotypes are homeostasis/metabolism and growth/size/body region
