Composition:

Calcitas-D 500 Tablets contain Elemental Calcium 500 mg and Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3) 250 IU.

Description:

Calcitas-D 500 is a calcium and vitamin D supplement used to prevent and treat calcium and vitamin D deficiency. Calcium is essential for maintaining strong bones and teeth, proper muscle contraction, nerve transmission, and cardiac function, while vitamin D3 enhances calcium absorption from the intestine. This combination helps improve bone mineral density and is beneficial in conditions such as osteoporosis, osteomalacia, pregnancy, lactation, and in elderly individuals with increased calcium requirements.

Adverse Effects:

Calcitas-D 500 is generally well tolerated. Some individuals may experience mild gastrointestinal effects such as constipation, bloating, nausea, abdominal discomfort, or flatulence. Rarely, excessive intake may lead to hypercalcemia, presenting as vomiting, increased thirst, frequent urination, or weakness.

Precautions:

The tablet should be taken as directed by a healthcare professional. Use with caution in patients with kidney stones, severe renal impairment, hypercalcemia, or hypervitaminosis D. Adequate hydration is recommended during therapy. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should use this medicine only under medical supervision. Do not exceed the recommended dose.

Storage:

Store in a cool, dry place away from moisture and direct sunlight. Keep the container tightly closed and out of reach of children.
