Calcium+Calcitriol Versus PTH for the Prevention of Hypocalcemia in Thyroidectomy. Randomized Clinical Trial

A PTH blood test will be performed 4 hours post-thyroidectomy. If the PTH result is \>15 pg/mL, the patient will be discharged without calcium intake; if PTH \< 15 pg/mL, start a dose of 1200 mg Calcium carbonate every 8 hours + 0.25 mcg of calcitriol every 12 hours orally for 15 days

The patient will receive a dose of 1,200 mg Calcium carbonate every 8 hours + 0.25 mcg of calcitriol every 12 hours orally for 15 days, starting on the same day as the intervention.
