Hi;
welcome to HealthcareMagic
Calcirol is Alfacalcidol .It is used in severe calcium deficiency or when more calcium is required for the body.It has no contraindication or restriction for use during pregnancy.So if your doctor has advised to take it weekly you can take it .It is safe & will initiate the body to produce calcium.
Thanks
