Treatment of Osteoporosis, Osteomalacia (Rickets), Calcium deficiency, Tetany, Hypoparathyroidism.
Medicinal Benefits:
Endocal D Forte Tablet is a combination of two drugs, namely; Calcium orotate (mineral), Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3), used to treat low blood calcium levels and various associated conditions caused by low calcium levels in the body, such as osteoporosis (weak and brittle bones), osteomalacia/rickets (weak bones), hypoparathyroidism (low levels of parathyroid hormone), and tetany (a muscle disease with low blood calcium levels). Calcium orotate is a mineral that prevents or treats calcium deficiency. It helps to maintain bone and teeth health. It is the only type of calcium penetrating the cell membrane and delivering maximum health benefits to cellular processes. Cholecalciferol, also known as Vitamin D3, treats calcium deficiency with hypoparathyroidism (the parathyroid gland's decreased activity) and metabolic bone diseases in people with chronic kidney failure.
Endocal D Forte Tablet is used to treat low blood calcium levels. It effectively treats various conditions caused by low calcium levels in the body, such as osteoporosis (weak and brittle bones), osteomalacia/rickets (weak bones), hypoparathyroidism (low levels of parathyroid hormone), and latent tetany (a muscle disease with low blood calcium levels). It can also be given to pregnant, nursing, and postmenopausal women to ensure that they are getting enough calcium. Additionally, Endocal D Forte Tablet is used to treat hyperparathyroidism (overactive parathyroid glands) and metabolic bone disease in people with chronic kidney disease, surgery, or other conditions.
Endocal D Forte Tablet is a combination of two medicines: Calcium orotate (mineral) and Cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3). Cholecalciferol helps your body absorb Calcium Carbonate and supports the muscles needed to avoid falls. Calcium helps build and maintain bones. Collectively, Endocal D Forte Tablet used to treat osteoporosis (weak and brittle bones), osteomalacia/rickets (weak bones), hypoparathyroidism (low levels of parathyroid hormone), and tetany (a muscle disease with low blood calcium levels).
Endocal D Forte Tablet can cause kidney stones due to excess calcium deposition when used for a prolonged period. Please consult your doctor before taking Endocal D Forte Tablet as a daily supplement if you have kidney problems or kidney stones history.
If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is time for the next scheduled dose, skip the missed dose, and follow your usual dosage.
Cholecalciferol in Endocal D Forte Tablet can increase inorganic phosphate levels in serum; hence it should be cautiously used in patients undergoing dialysis to maintain adequate phosphorus levels and avoid ectopic calcification (calcium deposition). It is advised to follow a low phosphate diet to control serum phosphorus levels in dialysis patients.
Endocal D Forte Tablet is used to increase low levels of calcium in the body. Hence it is not advised to use Endocal D Forte Tablet during hypercalcemia since it causes an overdose of calcium leading to kidney stones and other effects.
