Cinacalcet, sold under the brand name Sensipar among others, is a medication used to treat secondary hyperparathyroidism, parathyroid carcinoma, and primary hyperparathyroidism.[5][2] In secondary hyperparathyroidism, it is used in those who require dialysis; while in parathyroid carcinoma, it is used to treat high blood calcium.[6] It is taken by mouth with food.[5]

Common side effects include nausea and vomiting.[2] Other side effects may include upper GI bleeding, low calcium, low blood pressure, and adynamic bone disease.[5] It should not be used in people with low blood calcium.[2] Safety in pregnancy is unclear.[7] It is a calcimimetic, meaning that it mimics the action of calcium in the body.[2]

Cinacalcet was approved in the United States and Europe in 2004.[5][2] It is available as a generic medication.[8] In the United States 30 pills of 30 mg costs about 17 USD as of 2022.[8] This amount in the United Kingdom costs the NHS about £114.[6]
