Hypercalcemia is an electrolyte imbalance and is indicated by an excess of calcium in the blood. The normal adult value for calcium is 4.5-5.5 mEq/L. There are many reasons for an elevated blood calcium level. Reasons for the hypercalcemia may include: Cancer that started in the bone, or cancer that has spread to the bone. Some cancers can cause hypercalcemia themselves, without spread to the bone. Other conditions such as; overactive parathyroid gland or Paget's disease of the bone. Some medications cause hypercalcemia such as: alkaline antacids, diethylstilbesterol (DES), long-term use of diuretics, estrogens and progesterone.
