About Aptcal Plus Tablet 15's
Aptcal Plus Tablet 15's is used to treat post-menopausal osteoporosis (weak and brittle bones). Postmenopause is a condition in which women have not had a period for 12 months or longer. Osteoporosis is a bone disease that weakens and thins bones by decreasing bone density, which is common in post-menopausal women. As the density of bones decreases, they weaken and are more likely to break.

It provides essential nutrients to maintain bone formation. Magnesium and Zinc are minerals that provide essential nutrients to the body. Vitamin K2-7 helps build and maintain bones.
